Profile

After helping hundreds of companies craft and communicate messages, I’ve come to realize that the secret to good writing and effective communication is collaboration. Why? Because nobody has all the answers. The only way to approach perfection is to work together to share expertise, insight and knowledge.

I bring my writing and communication skills and deep understanding of business to the table. My clients add their knowledge of their businesses and their products or services. Together, we work to distill ideas and information into straightforward communication that generates results.

My writing has been used in a wide variety of communication projects for clients located throughout North America. I’ve written extensively for public- and private-sector companies, large and small. And I routinely team up with marketing agencies and graphic designers on large projects to write narrative that’s both strategic and creative.

I work, though, as a freelance professional writer. When it gets busy, two others get added: me and myself. Fortunately, we all get along well. Better still, no matter how busy I become, you can always get hold of me, which makes a person such as myself particularly happy to be able to provide prompt personal service.

I was born and raised on Vancouver Island. I live in Vancouver with my wife and with a golden retriever and two frighteningly large but fit cats. My hobbies include cycling, gardening and more cycling. I’ve retired from several sports, including baseball, golf, curling, football and hockey. Like many athletes, my retirement may be temporary.

If you’d like to know more about me and how I work or want to get started on a communication project, please contact me. Thanks for your interest. I look forward to building a business partnership with you.
