Ross is a trained and experienced writer and editor holding a Master’s degree in Journalism from the University of Oregon. His longest-held editing position was for a midwestern political think tank, where until recently he was the news editor: reviewing submissions for voice, content, typographical errors and tone. Also an experienced writer, the lion's share of his experience is in writing for search engine optimization, for which he's produced dozens of blog posts, articles and web pages. Ross' particular strength is matching voice and style to fit the intended audience: easygoing, professional, academic, or instructive. He has made a career out of writing newsletters, website copy and marketing material.
