The short story

 

Thanks so much for coming this far. I’m an economical marketing writer who has made the most of many great opportunities to learn and grow throughout my career. I’ve written hundreds of fiction and nonfiction book jackets, 45-minute sales presentations responsible for millions of dollars in revenue, catalogs for the world’s great book publishers, and campaigns for the world’s most influential educational publishers. I’m skilled at working with leaders across divisions, believe that hard work can solve any problem, and have made lifelong friends at every job I’ve ever held.

I’m an avid reader, a skilled boatbuilder and picture framer, and I play drums in a killer Boston-based rock ‘n’ roll band.
