Hello!

I started as an advertising copywriter with a legendary cruise line on South Beach, Florida.

Next came the daily beat at a paper in Northern Vermont covering village politics, regional news and rural stories.

I branched into PR content, writing for a boys’ private school and a military university.

Eventually evolving into a freelance-contractor where I now specialize in “green luxury” lifestyles and legacy brands.

I enjoy representing independent firms that value planet and people as much as profit.
