Experience
Since 1985, I have written and edited books and magazine articles, as well as
marketing, advertising and website copy. I have worked with editors and
production staff on dozens of different types of projects. I have built my writing
career on features about creative, entrepreneurial individuals based on personal
interviews and original research. I pride myself on finding and revealing to the
reader the relatable person inside even the most famous public figure. I have
authored dozens of magazine and newspaper articles and nine books. I’ve co-
translated many books [Japanese/English] and promoted dozens of others.
In my spare time, I give back to my community by designing and carrying out
marketing plans and fundraisers and writing for non-profit websites. I’m also on my
city’s parks commission.
