(Self-Employed; Myself Only; Writing and Editing industry)
October 2004 — Present (5 years 3 months)
I'm a nationally published freelance writer who specializes in using people's experiences to illuminate trends and issues--in other words, I put a human face on every piece I write, whether that face is the client or a source. I also enjoy writing stories that provide simple ways to improve one's life. Often, that comes out in my stories on health, housing, employment and pop culture. I've written for Alternative Medicine, Yoga Journal, The San Francisco Chronicle Sunday Magazine, The San Francisco Chronicle and many other publications.
