I am a self-motivated editor, writer, and design professional proficient in Microsoft Word, PageMaker, In Design, and Photoshop, with working knowledge of Illustrator and PowerPoint. Here's what I do:
Editing
Editing is perhaps my favorite skill. I specialize in turning confusing, convoluted pieces into simple, concise works, but I'm equally as comfortable working closely with someone on creating a new piece in "their own" words.
Layout Design
Most of my talent in Layout Design comes from two decades of experience. My materials focus on strong, photographic images with minimal text.


Writing
Writing is at the heart of all I do. I feel good writing denotes professionalism, no matter the publication. I have written thousands of words for innumerable press releases, newsletter articles, brochures, pamphlets, and advertisements.
Other Services
From time to time, clients have asked me to dig deeper into my creative basket and pull out skills not falling into my usual categories. I've created custom greeting cards, painted mirrors, and written poetry. If your needs go beyond writing, editing, or design layout, let me know. I love a challenge.
