I am a writer, a connector and a problem solver. I spent the first quarter of my career in the newsroom as a writer, editor and skilled plate-spinner. Journalism taught me a few valuable lessons: always be accurate and to the point, always get a second (and third) set of eyes on your copy and always beat the deadline. A few years ago I switched over to public relations.  I help companies figure out who they are, what they want to say, who they want to say it to and to what end. I've work with everyone, from big complex companies with myriad relationships to a few partners with a vision. I'm good at what I do, I'm trustworthy and am willing and able to work with anyone. I married a girl I met in a creative writing class in college, and we have two kids that constantly leave us in awe. We live in Atlanta proper. I love urban exploring, history, books and I still pen a weekly column in the Northside Neighbor.
