I am a geologist, historian, and writer with 10 years professional experience in research, environmental assessment, and ghost-writing. I have extensive regulatory knowledge and research skills as a result of my involvement in real estate due diligence and environmental assessment activities as a geologist. I am a part-time historian with formal training in source analysis and synthesis. I am also an avid writer of fiction, non-fiction, blog and marketing materials. I enjoy challenging work and am happiest solving a technical problem or a "dead end" in research. I enjoy proofreading and copywriting duties. Furthermore, I have basic HTML, SEO, and website coding skills and am able to assist with setting up a basic website framework for businesses to expand. I also own my own professional camera equipment and photo editing software and can provide original photographic content for websites, marketing, and blogs. In addition to my professional aspirations, I have many hobbies. I enjoy brewing beer, cooking, traveling and planning trips, hiking and camping, drawing and painting, playing the piano, attending concerts, reading, video games, and building furniture, among other things. I hope to assist you with your writing needs! If you need a copywriter, researcher, blogger, proofreader or an on-call employee for any other literary capacity, I hope you reach out and allow me the opportunity to aid your business.
