About

I’m  a writer, web consultant and maestro of managing content. I help people and businesses communicate with clarity, integrity and respect.

That sounds pretty hoighty-toighty but it translates as: communication that works. It’s the kind of content customers love. It’s the kind they engage and commit with.

Professional history (also see LinkedIn):

Web writer & editor: for many years with TELUS, a major telecommunications company, working in a wide range of areas – portals, web pages, sites, print, video, RFP responses, consumer-focused technical instructions and other areas. (I continue to do work for this company.)

Social media: setting up and maintaining a social media presence for small businesses (blogs, Facebook, Twitter etc.)

Broadcast media: a copywriter and producer of radio advertising at a number of radio stations including rock, easy listening, country, Christian and talk radio.

Additionally:

I’ve maintained my own blogs since roughly 2000 (Writelife and Piddleville). I am also a contributor at Thoughtwrestling, a blog devoted to creativity, problem solving and idea generation.
