I Work.
As a professional writer, editor, and writing coach, I specialize in business communication. This means that I work with businesses and content creators to craft website content, blogs, marketing collateral (such as letters, postcards, EOYA campaign materials, etc.), proposals, grants, resumes, cover letters, magazine articles, press releases, and more.
