Professional Background:

For over 30 years I helped clients develop and deliver their messages in print. Prior to that I worked in a variety of industries, including 6 years in remote arctic DEWLine stations. That gave me unique insight into logistics, safety, and team morale. Now I focus on helping people develop effective messages that grow their business.
