I am a journalist, writer, artist, photographer, public speaker, entertainer and leader. I am creative, honest and driven. I am professionally focused on creating digital strategies that drive viewers to quality content. Basically, I can design and build a website, fill it with content, find it an audience and keep 'em coming back.
Many years ago, I built my first full working website, The Ghent Reader, a literary review for Southeastern Virginia that grew out of poetry group established years earlier. (See a working archive of the 2004 build.) The Ghent Reader helped me land my first digital job as a community producer for HamptonRoads.com and PilotOnline.com. Eventually, I would grow to be the coordinating producer for HamptonRoads.com. Currently, I am the producer of Tell Me More... Storytelling a new event at the Push Comedy Theater in Norfolk. I also host and produce Tell Me More... Live, the podcast featuring storytellers from the event. As a freelancer, I still create content for web and print publishers, develop and produce simple websites and use social media to help organizations spread the word and connect.
