ABOUT ME
The short story:
Outdoorsman, veteran, author, environmental and wildlife conservation advocate, quick study, and damn good listener.
​
The longer story:
I'm equally comfortable presenting in a boardroom as hunting or fly fishing in rugged wilderness locales— although the latter is far preferable.
For more than 21 years, I've been in the marketing communications and freelance writing game — from junior copywriter to associate creative director at ad agencies to director of communications at a national trade association to senior staff writer at an online outdoor magazine to Humanities faculty teaching college writing and literature.
​
My philosophy? Uncover and tell stories of the human condition that get at the necessary heart of what matters; find relevance in the connections most people miss; and ultimately motivate positive change. ​​​
​
Industry chops: outdoor/sporting goods (hunting/fishing), environmental conservation, non-profit, financial services, health care, automotive, higher education, consumer retail, public utilities, security, aerospace/defense/aviation.
