I served as a production director for JWJ Enterprises, Murdoch Magazines, and Reed, Inc. before becoming a consultant. My own past expertise in running a twice-weekly publication, scheduling third-party collaboration, negotiating for new technologies, and directing workflow on a large scale helped me add value to my clients' endeavors. Teaching seminars, writing articles for our industry, and connecting with many talented individuals has helped keep me ahead of most trends. I've also worked as an executive at a crisis center for women, helped establish an energy coop for low income families, created a small business for displaced homemakers, raised money for various charitable causes, and taught English as a second language in Ecuador. I've organized group trips for artists to Europe and Central America, and taught English, Spanish and art at an alternative high school.
