Professional Experience
After a decade of online writing part-time, I left a career in corporate finance and accounting to pursue writing full-time. I have professional experience in banking along with corporate finance/account roles in telecommunications, retirement home management, and payments.
My writing has been focused primarily around personal finance and entrepreneurship topics with extensive experience writing about investing, debt management, mortgages, student loans, earning income on the side through a "side hustle," affordable travel, and real estate.
I have also ventured into topics on travel, telecommunications, customer service, and consumer technology.
