Professional Experience

Veteran journalist, editor and ghostwriter specializing in finance (I'm a CPA), human resources, entrepreneurship and social issues. I've covered everything from Forbes 400 titans. workplace shootings, investor fraud and celebrity divorce to a probation officer's attempt to keep her kids off the street. I've ghostwritten business books and a memoir, created a career blog for ex-offenders and profile notable women as senior storyteller for Quotabelle.com. I've also provided content (reports, scripts, articles) for corporate clients.
