Hi.

Who do I write for?
Agencies, businesses and start-ups. Confidentiality agreements prevent me from disclosing the majority of my client list, however, here is a partial list of client industries. An asterisk next to an industry indicates that I have written for one of the top three manufacturers (or brands) in that industry; A + indicates that I have written for multiple clients in that industry.

I also help help international companies Americanize their copy.
How can you put my skills to work for your company or brand?
It’s easy. Contact me! (Yes! It’s that easy! Just a call or a click is all it takes to put 15-years of copy writing experience to work on your brand!)
What happens next?
When you contact me, I’ll ask you a few questions about your project to make sure it’s a good fit. If I think it’s a good fit and you feel that I’m a good fit, we’ll talk about fees. On the first project, I will generally give you a flat fee for the project, rather than an hourly rate. If you still like me after we talk about fees (and don’t worry, you probably will), I’ll get started on your project.
Am I too small of a client?
Of course not! If you need high-quality, professional copy and you’ve landed here, you’re in the right place. Good copy is for anyone. Stop worrying and contact me!
