Even after 15 years as a communications professional, it is still a source of great pride that, when asked “What do you do?”, I get to say:
I’m a writer.
More specifically: I’m a writer and editor with 10-plus years of experience and specialties in writing for the web, collateral management and all aspects of public relations. I chose my career well, as I am passionate about words and language and awed by the power generated when the two are used well.
Words can topple kingdoms, and that fact just about takes my breath away.
And I’m out of work.
I was recently laid off from my position as a web content writer with a Scottsdale-based mobile technology company. I’m seeking a challenging and exciting position with a forward-thinking organization that will utilize my passion for language and my marketing savvy.
I’ve been called ‘outgoing,’ ‘optimistic’ and ‘enthusiastic,’ all of which fit. I’m a go-getter who thrives on deadlines and in fast-paced environments. I enjoy work of a collaborative nature, but can venture out solo, too — minimal supervision required.
I live in Phoenix, where I’m raising two amazing children. I blog avidly, have a penchant for baking and sometimes find time to write a short story or two.
Thank you for visiting and I look forward to hearing from you.
