As a Senior Writer & Editor with 20+ years of progressively responsible print publishing experience with Costco’s magazine, the Costco Connection, I work closely with internal and external stakeholders to promote, protect, and expand a company’s reputation and brand through innovative writing and editing about its products, services and initiatives.During my career, I have developed strategic partnerships and engaged readers by developing quality content. I have collaborated with design and editorial staff members to develop rich ideas and helped make them realities. I understand the crucial role bringing graphic designers and staff writers together to develop strong concepts that both sides understand and can execute. I also know how important stellar photography and tightly-written copy works together to drive a message home in readers’ minds.Highlights of my achievements include:► Realigned strategy to collaborate from dispersed geographically locations on strategic content planning initiatives when additional workload was generated with no increased staffing or resources.► Led advanced planning efforts and worked with the UK office and US editorial team to complete a year’s worth of edit plans which reduced stress and improved the quality of content.► Created specialized content from celebrity interviews with the likes of country artist Tim McGraw, Harry Belafonte, Tony Bennett, The Eagles, Mariah Carey, Roger Daffrey, and more.As I look forward to networking with other professionals concerning writing and editing, please connect with me by sending me a message here on LinkedIn to learn more about how I can partner with your organization to offer additional ideas and resources.

I serve as assistant editor for the UK edition of The Costco Connection. This requires big-picture planning of entire magazine issues as well as attention to the minute details of every story from freelancers and staff writers—to the stories I write.
