Contributor to Pulitzer and ASME finalist entries, I write profiles, B2C/B2B content marketing, branded content and journalism. My specialties are health, med tech, interior design and profiles.
The determination, curiosity and sense of humor and adventure that caused me to style a fashion shoot in the middle of Parisian rush-hour traffic also led me to be besieged by bullets in Belfast, shaken by a major Mexican earthquake and tune out dueling Elvis impersonators at deadline in a Memphis newsroom. I also brought a murderer’s mom to an interview because I figured the pizza chef wouldn’t kill me in front of her.
Hire me and I’ll give you the deep dish.
In the meantime, I’m busy writing on medicine, retail merchandising, visuals, management, retail, fashion and interior design. I also have been the contributing blogger for Memorial Hermann Hospitals’ Everyday Well Health + Wellness since 2016.
An art director, I create infographics and slides, and acquire quality images for my clients.
