Some of my notable and most enjoyable work has included designing e-learning at the University of Southern California’s Institute for Creative Technologies, writing and reporting for Marketplace on public radio, and designing systems for information management in a number of settings–including for Yahoo! TV and Disney.com.

Writing

Skills
My heart lies in analogizing, writing, entertaining, and teaching.
I am an excellent verbal and written communicator. One of my most valuable skills is an ability to synthesize and communicate ideas across audiences. In my work, that’s included university professors, public radio listeners, Army officers, film producers, nurses, software developers, and entertainment journalists. I have exercised this skill as a writer, editor, producer, public speaker, radio broadcaster, live event emcee, tutor, and teacher.
