Business
I am a writer, creative director and marketing strategist with more than 20 years of experience. I work in all media, but mostly I create sales support and corporate communication materials. I am also an attorney.

How I Work
Who I Work For
I am a self-employed professional, i.e., a freelancer. I have been independent since 1986. Some of my clients are marketing services companies (like ad agencies), the rest are the marketers themselves. Most of my clients use my services regularly and long-term, so I get to know them and their business.
