Summary:
Are you looking for an experienced freelance writer who can make your project shine?
Are you tired of working with writers who claim to be professionals but don’t have the talent, knowledge or credentials to back it up?
Do you want a writer who will not only meet deadlines and create clear, compelling copy, but will work with you as part of your creative team, brainstorming ideas, offering honest feedback and taking pride in your business?
I’m there for you.
A freelance writer and editor specializing in a broad range of niche markets since 1992, I've also held the Editor-in-Chief position at three magazines. This unique blend of editorial skills and publishing knowledge makes me the perfect fit for many projects.
I love learning about new topics through writing. If you have a project that requires specialized knowledge, ask me! I might know about it or be interested in learning! Over the past two decades, I’ve written about everything from HVAC systems to teeth whitening – and hundreds of topics in between.

Interests:
To inform and to entertain, this is my calling and dream. I'm a full-time freelance writer and editor, with an impressive client list that includes Fortune 500 companies such as Yahoo, AOL and Microsoft and a variety of others, including ghostwriting for top names in many industries.
Widely published in trade and consumer magazines, including Club Business International, Sound & Communications, Church Production Magazine and on Web sites such as Long Island Exchange, CreditShout.com and AllReviews.com, I make it a point to expand my knowledge on all subjects.
I currently work as the Grammar Guide on the popular Freelance Writing Jobs Network and as a blogger at Writer's Roundabout, where I fulfill my goals of mentoring, guiding and networking with writers at every level.
Always an entrepreneur and interested in every realm of the publishing business, I launched my first publication while still in college. I went on to hold the title of Editor-in-Chief for Band & Orchestra Product News, a trade journal for music educators, as well as for Paintball Sports and RECON, internationally-distributed paintball magazines.
Critically involved in the mid-90s launch of Long Island-based publisher Testa Communications’ Club Systems International, I brought my vast experience and broad knowledge to the project as an Executive Editor. My extensive editorial background offers insight into an editor’s daily challenges and the importance of deadlines and editorial standards. I pride myself on exceeding editors’ expectations.
Some of my niche markets include parenting, pregnancy and paintball, as well as health and fitness, home-based businesses and marketing, finance and technology.
I serve on the Advisory Board of the International Mastermind Group with other top authors, coaches and professionals in a myriad of fields, guiding and advising fledgling writers as they accomplish their goals.
With a wealth of knowledge on a variety of topics and a willingness to share with others, I have spearheaded, organized and moderated a variety of online writers’ workshops. My desire to mentor young writers recently evolved into an interest in public speaking.
When I'm not traveling the world in pursue of captivating stories, I live on Long Island with my husband, daughter and four useless, but lovable, cats.
What's next for me? More of the same: Expanding my talents and always giving back in a spirit of gratitude for all the blessings in my life.”
