My Work
Versatile. Resourceful. Creative.
These are terms people have used to describe me when it comes to managing ideas and projects, and in my writing and creation of tools that optimize and add value to business processes. I communicate in many styles, always being mindful of my audience, and craft my messaging and voice to match the requirements of a project. Regardless of assignment – creative or technical – I tell stories that create imagery to convey ideas in a fluid and conversational way.
