I am a writer from New Jersey who now lives and works in the Atlanta Metro area. My 35-year career has revolved around writing and teaching writing, a professional journey that has woven through academia, publishing, and journalism. I bring a passion for narrative and storytelling and sharp editorial skills and judgment to my work. I welcome opportunities to collaborate on writing, editorial projects, and content development. Let’s connect and tell great stories together.

​

My experience spans creative nonfiction, fiction, scholarly articles, journalism, and professional writing. I have contributed to publications ranging from Missouri Review and Michigan Quarterly Review to PopMatters and Adirondack Life Magazine, tackling subjects as diverse as history, culture, and technology. I was listed as a "notable" writer in Best American Essays 2020 and recently nominated for a Pushcart Prize. I currently teach writing at Georgia Gwinnett College, but I am seeking freelance and contract editorial work. 

I am a "scanner" and a polymath who gravitates to opportunities to learn new skills and apply my editorial skills to meaningful, impactful projects, whether that is editing scholarly journals, shaping technical writing textbooks, or mentoring emerging writers. I know how to work across disciplines and genres, and I know how to create engaging, precise, and impactful content, whether it is a white paper, a feature article, or a brand narrative.
