I am a writer, a traveler, and a communication specialist. I love dogs, honesty, fairness and justice….usually in that order. As a travel journalist, I have explored many places and cultures. I’ve been lucky enough to ride elephants in Thailand, try on a sealskin parka under the midnight sun in Nunavut, share songs in a steaming Mexican temazcal (sweat lodge) and stroke the soft fur of lion cubs at a refuge in South Africa.

My writing is not restricted to travel. I view the process as opening a door and I’ve happily taken on a multitude of subjects as I’ve pursued my livelihood. Whether the assignment is to write an article about security, compile an annual report, or craft a CEO’s speech, I am eager to enter new realms and increase my own personal knowledge.

Contributing to projects that make the world a better place is an ongoing goal. My passion for international development, blended with my skills as a professional communicator, has helped broadcast the work of some very dedicated people and organizations.

Thanks for letting me share with you.
