I'm fast, savvy, educated and accurate. I've worked hard to build my skills, and I've spent my time in the content trenches. I have experience writing for major publications as a ghostwriter, and I regularly contribute to aggregate news sites. My average reader base is between 2000-8000 viewers, but I can go much higher with the right story and the right exposure. I would love to find a nice job, and maybe settle down. I love tight deadlines and demanding readers. The more stress the merrier. I have experience working with Google Docs, Basecamp, Microsoft, Wordpress and Zoho CRM. Resume and portfolio site available upon request.
