Writer
Annie Dillard once asked a friend, a happy painter, how he first came to his craft. He answered, “I liked the smell of the paint.” My answer to that question would be similar: I became a writer because I love sentences.
I also love the audacity of small business, of risking much to create something that wasn’t there before. If I can help a business realize value through the words it uses, I’ve spent my day well.
I approach every project with this conviction: THE RIGHT WORDS ADD VALUE - Not the soft value of aesthetic appeal, but the bottom-line value that usability, credibility, and clarity of purpose bring.
The bottom line for you is that I can improve the value of the copy you’re publishing. The writing won’t just sound better—it will be more valuable, communicating your message more clearly and compelling your reader to action more convincingly.
In 1991, I earned a Bachelors in Communications from the University of Michigan and from Michigan State University (2000) received a bachelors in English and a masters in Curriculum and Teaching. I’ve taught high school English for 12 years. During that time my wife Heidi and I have stayed busy raising five boys and a girl.
