Bio

Like many female writers, I’ve been putting pen to paper since I first read Louisa May Alcott’s “Little Women.” Since graduating from college (political science, University of Delaware), I have been lucky enough to make a living as a writer or an editor.

During my career, I have reported or edited the news at daily newspapers and a wire service, written speeches and press releases as a public relations officer, and taught a journalism course that I created for Tufts University’s Experimental College.

I’ve worked in New Orleans; Chicago; Philadelphia; Raleigh, N.C.; and metro Boston, which I now call home.

Now I’m an independent writer. My clients articulate their communications goals and I write the copy to achieve them. I
take the time to understand each client before I write a single word. Then I join with other professionals to produce memorable and effective marketing materials, websites, articles, and newsletters.

I also enjoy being able to donate my skills to charities I believe in. In partnership with Elwell Communications, I routinely write the annual appeal for the Habitat for Humanity affiliate in Lawrence, Mass. In the past few years, the appeal has generated record sums for affordable housing.

It would be a pleasure to help tell your story. I look forward to hearing it.
