Bio

What I Do

I have a passion for great writing. Excellence is one of my most cherished core values.

The exquisite beauty of a powerful idea expressed in words, whether through a single sentence or a 700-page novel, is something that has stirred my soul since as long as I can remember.

So . . . What I do: I search out transformational ideas and stories and bring them to life in words.

You Are a Metaphor

They say one picture is worth a thousand words. But sometimes a few well-chosen words can be worth ten thousand pictures.
