My background…

As a part of my professional responsibilities and academic pursuits over the last two decades, I have had the unique opportunity to develop my creative and professional writing skills into what I like to call a “high-level generalist.”

• I am intimately acquainted with writing and editing using Chicago, MLA, and APA.
• I have written copy, ad copy, and various forms of content for my own upcoming family of sites, as well as well as occasional freelancing throughout the last decade.
• I have a working understanding of how to focus copy and content for SEO/SEM using AdWords/Google Ads, etc.
• Extensive research background and work with primary sources throughout my undergrad degrees in history.
• Professional documents such as SOPs, technical manuals and training manuals, and more.
• I am a published fiction author who has almost completed his full-length, debut novel and master’s thesis, The Lonely Places.
• I have worked professionally in tech, emergency services and management, the military and federal government, with experience in startups ranging from talent acquisition to the restaurant industry. These are just some of the content areas I consider myself expertly qualified to produce content about.
