Sherrie Voss Matthews’s Summary

I'm an experienced editor and writer who has Web 2.0 savvy and marketing skills. I am the Multimedia Editor at the University of Texas-San Antonio's Institute of Texan Cultures.

I've been blogging since 2002. As a staff memeber and later Web Editor at Drury University, I launched and maintained the campus Facebook and Twitter sites in 2008. I can read HTML and CSS code and make fixes when my developers need an editing eye.

I also served as part of a team of Mom Moderators for the OzarksMomslikeme.com website for the Gannett Corporation's Springfield News-Leader. We're a diverse bunch, but we value opinions and discussion.

As a reporter, I've covered higher education, local government, planning and development, and architecture. My writing and editing credits have been seen in MomsLikeMe, 417, Planning, and Drury magazines, as well as various newspapers and websites.
