Since September 2013, I have been doing writing, research, editing and media and public-relations consulting. Much of my work over the past year has consisted of writing articles and white papers for Energy Central, an electronic publisher serving the electric-power industry. In addition to that industry, I'm most knowledgeable about the areas I've covered as a business reporter, which include technology, telecommunications, venture capital, energy, defense and nonprofits, but I can get up to speed on anything quickly. I am very familiar with the tech-startup and venture-capital communities in the Philadelphia area and am able to apply my knowledge of tech companies, startups, and venture capital/private equity to other markets as well. I am also capable of coming up with creative copy and concepts, especially if it uses humor.Additionally, I am responsible for promoting and marketing the intellectual property that belongs to the estate of my father, cartoonist and writer Ted Key. He created Hazel, a comic panel about a maid that was made into a prime-time TV show starring Shirley Booth and was the subject of "Hazel: A Musical Maid in America," which ran at the Drury Lane Theatre outside Chicago from April 6 through May 29. He also created the characters that became Peabody and Sherman, the time-traveling dog and his boy, who were featured on the TV show, "Rocky and His Friends."​ I secured him a creators' credit in the movie "Mr. Peabody & Sherman," which was released by DreamWorks Animation in March 2013, and "The Mr Peabody & Sherman" show, which is being streamed on Netflix. I am finishing editing his memoir, which is slated to be published by BearManor Media.

I find online content for RTO Insider to tweet about and include as briefs in its daily email; write tweets; write its daily email; and write stories as needed.

My initial beats at the Business Journal were technology, telecommunications, venture capital and nonprofits. Along the way, I added higher education, defense, utilities and energy. Toward the end of my tenure, I covered labor instead of nonprofits.When I was hired, I wrote two or three stories on my beats and a column on technology for the Business Journal's weekly print edition, and did occasional short items for its website. By the time I left, I was doing as many stories and blogs as possible for the Business Journal's website each day; giving my take on what I'd reported on the Web in the paper each week; and writing a large centerpiece story for the paper once every five weeks. I also was taking photos for the print edition and website.

I was hired to write two stories a week for a newly launched Sunday section on residential real estate, plus an additional one or two stories a week for the Star's business section. Initially, I also covered telecommunications, then added utilities. My duties were eventually switched to covering small, women-owned and minority businesses and venture capital.

I was hired to write for the Business, Entertainment and South Jersey Living sections of The Sunday Press. When the paper's Sunday and daily staffs were combined, I became the primary reporter for non-casino business and assisted the casino reporter with his coverage when needed.
