Good writing is always anchored in words; but great writing is about more than that: it’s about the tone, the feeling, the sense of engagement with the reader.

Sometimes it’s taking complex ideas and making them intelligible for non-specialists.

Other times it’s expanding kernels into full, beautiful, and expansive texts.

But in the end, it’s always about communication: assuring that your words are fully communicating your thoughts with precision and intentionality.

For more than 25 years—as a teacher, college professor, and professional editor—it has always been my goal to make my students’ and clients’ ideas shine through language.

And I will always work directly and personally with you—no outsourcing or AI.

“Words ought to be a little wild,

for they are the assault of thoughts on the unthinking.”

—John Maynard Keynes
