As editor of Newport Life magazine for 12 years, I’m now a freelance editor and trusted strategist. Editors tell me I’m the first person they call during a staff absence or a busy production cycle, because I quickly parachute in, maintain staff workflow to meet deadlines, manage tough rewrites with heart and humor, and write everything from blog posts to front-of-book articles. I also curate special publications for nonprofits, creating and editing the content and managing workflow.
