Need a hand in the words department?I help time-strapped marketing and communications managers serve up engaging stories about their dynamic organizations, dedicated employees, loyal customers, and innovative products and services. In my 20-plus years as a writer, I’ve written case studies, annual reports, newsletters, profiles, feature articles, web pages, speeches, video scripts and social media posts for higher education, banks, government and custom publishers. My byline has appeared in magazines such as enRoute, Today’s Parent, University of Toronto Magazine and International Architecture & Design. I'm big on turning complicated material into appealing, understandable copy. And because I’m so curious about people, I fast-track to the human angle of any story to keep readers reading.I’m also a professional copy editor, plain-language fan, proofreader and all-round word-nerd. I get my kicks out of reading grammar books and writing Nitpick (my newsletter on how to write and speak better). But most of all, I love helping my clients produce clear, concise and compelling communications that get results.
