I am a Writer

The written word can be a powerful tool and story laden art from that I love to use for a myriad of topics and for multiple outlets.  I am a published freelance writer with bi-lines and without.  Some of my bi-line writing can be found in North End Metro Magazine where I was a lifestyle writer and photographer for two years covering boutiques, artists, museums, restaurants, and places of interest.  You can also find my work in the Beacon Publishing, Inc. newspapers covering local happenings. My work has also been published without a bi-line in the Seattle PI and multiple local papers and online media in the Northwest.  My press releases have been picked up by The Seattle Times, Seattle Magazine, Seattle Met online, Vanguard Seattle, and the Seattle PI just to name a few outlets.  I am currently available as a freelance writer for magazines and newspapers covering art, lifestyle, and events as well as writing essays and short stories.  I am also available to businesses, galleries, and artists writing copy for websites, press releases, artist and gallery catalogues, blogs, emails, and bios.  Contact me to find out more and get started with your next project!
