Good writing connects people.
I’m a professional writer and producer based in Ottawa, Canada. Thanks for visiting my website. If you’ve come this far already, I have no doubt that you’ll find something here that meets your particular interests.
Who I am
I’m a relentlessly curious guy who loves to find out stuff and tell people about it. I’m a storyteller, a lifelong learner and a bit of a polymath, according to my brother. I’m also a talented, reliable professional writer and video producer who has never missed a deadline. I can prepare a compelling parliamentary speech or feature article in a few hours, but will do an even better job given more time. I have a talent for strategic communications and visual storytelling, and have produced hundreds of videos for broadcast, web and corporate audiences.
What I do
I write in all promotional genres: speeches, websites, reports, articles, multimedia scripts, brochures, advertisements and more.
I produce videos and multimedia presentations, and occasionally appear on camera or in voiceover.
I’m a communications strategist: I work with clients to identify and analyze target audiences and determine how best to inspire them—to influence their thoughts, feelings and actions.

Résumé
After nearly 20 years in broadcast news and current affairs, I moved into freelance writing more than a decade ago and never looked back.
