About

• Former journalist with credits in Washington Post, USA Today, Newsweek, and many other national and international publications. • Multi-decade career as a professional writer, editor, and publishing consultant for diverse clients worldwide. • Author of two books published internationally in multiple languages (John Wiley & Sons NY).. • Ghostwriter on two other business titles by Intel Press. • Editor or contributor to a dozen nonfiction books on various topics. • Historically large list of Fortune 500 clients including HP, Intel, Chase Bank, FedEx, and most major energy companies. • Experience working remotely with project teams on five continents. • On-site engagements in US, Europe, Canada, and Mexico. • Video and screenwriting experience: winner of "second-round" honors at 2019 Austin Film Festival. • Specializing in development and publishing of large-scale multi-volume projects (books, proposals, reports, studies, etc.) My skills as a former journalist taught me how to interview any subject matter expert and translate that into readable, informative documents, case studies, web content, entire books, and more. A good example is Intel Press where I interviewed C-level execs at META Group (now part of Gartner) on the topic of adaptive IT infrastructure, repurposed their seminar material, and used that information to produce two new books, "The Adaptive Enterprise" and "Enriching the Value Chain.". I've done the same in a wide variety of industries, helping clients communicate with customers and stakeholders from the C-suite down to the cubicle, lab, construction site, field office, or warehouse.
