Bio:
I'm a professional writer with 25+ years experience in journalism and oral history gathering. A native of the Midwest with deep roots in the Mountain West, I became a resident of Florida in 2022 and serve as a catch-all creative specializing in legacy projects. I work with clients to identify the formats or outcomes they desire, then structure a series of interviews (often with several family members) to produce a rich and valuable record. My favorite projects capture voice, place, and deep meaning in detail so telling it gives you goosebumps.
Please read my published creative nonfiction (linked through my site) for a sense of my particular style and skill. These days, I'm also interested in mindfulness as a civic practice and narrative medicine techniques and hope to teach both within Florida's vast VA community.
