Summary

Experienced in newsletters, feature articles, annual reports, press releases, web content and more.

Details

Whether writing a feature magazine article on tackling children’s sleep issues, or researching the latest information on brain studies for a newsletter, I deliver well-researched, concise communications on deadline. As a former lawyer-turned writer, I am adept at turning legalese into understandable prose. With 20 years of experience in the field, my articles have appeared in the Chicago Tribune, Adoptive Families magazine as well as professional association publications, small business and nonprofit communications.
