I have been a journalist and an editor for more than 30 years. My focus has been, well, varied – politics, business-to-business, law, music, non-profits, social issues, and so on.
The range is broad, too, on approach – short form features, magazine length pieces, profiles, general news stories, and so forth.
Several of my articles have won statewide awards and my work has appeared in more than 60 publications, from Wired to Minnesota Monthly, from the Los Angeles Times to Newsday, from HR Magazine to Healthplan.
What do I write about? Lots of topics: Economics, Health Care, Sustainability, Human Resources, Technology, Travel. Read on.
