PORTFOLIO

Following are some writing samples, design project examples, and article topics covered. I have established a track record for crafting written work that needs little to no editing upon first submission. Many of my pieces go straight through to publication. I do careful and thorough research and strive to make each project surpass its predecessor in quality.
