Writing projects
What do you get when you hire me as a writer?
At Emory University for more than three decades, I was trusted to do some of its most consequential stories: accounts of the impact of our presidents and deans as well as tributes to President Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter, thanking them for their outsize roles in the life of the university.
For a broader look at my writing, visit the Emory News Center and type my name in the search box.
Editing projects
What do you get when you hire me as an editor?
A scrupulous editor who cares about your words — maximizing their impact, ensuring their accuracy — as if they were my own.
Among many highly varied editorial projects, I have nearly 20 years’ experience editing doctoral dissertations for students in the University of Pennsylvania’s Higher Education Management program and New York University’s Stern School of Business.
