Skills
Summary
Create documents for a managed IT service provider in Northern Nevada. I was a senior editor at MoneyGeek.com and LetsGoSolar.com, which are online resources to help people make smart personal finance and solar purchasing decisions. I was an editor at Bills.com, a personal finance resource for consumers and successful mortgage lead generator, and held editorial positions at IBM and a large publishing firm. My editorial skills include working with a variety of materials ranging from short news stories to 50,000-word technical books. I love to work with the writing of others, and enjoy the process of honing an article until it is to the point. When I have the opportunity, I believe I write well, too. I enjoy working with and managing creative people, am comfortable working alone, as a contributor or leading the team. My other skills include Web site architecture and keyword analysis, community building, project management, content management, contract negotiation, hiring & leadership, print production, spreadsheets, and basic open source software administration. My personal interests include finance, solar power, home automation, computer technology, law, welding, woodworking, live theater, and creating large-scale art projects and flame effects at Burning Man.
