I speak English and Spanish, and have worked in both the public and private sectors as a Technical Writer for big shipping, a Proposal Writer in the pharmaceutical clinical trials industry, a Coordinator of International Relations for local government in Japan, and an Immigration Consultant in NYC serving richly diverse, multinational constituencies.

I've also written feature articles for the Rutland Herald and worked as a Paralegal in corporate litigation.  I've addressed audiences ranging from dozens to thousands while living and working in Washington, D.C., Japan, New York City, and Vermont.  In addition to being a skilled editor, I have been called a talented photographer.  Examples of my photography portfolio can be viewed at:  visualcontact.imagekind.com.
