I've spent over 20 years working with words as a journalist, film critic, and communications specialist.
For seven years, I was sports editor at a daily newspaper that published six days a week. I wrote features and daily sports coverage, edited sections, built pages on deadline, and managed freelancers. It was intense, fast-paced work that taught me how to write clean copy under pressure and make quick editorial calls.
I'm film critic and founding member of the Indiana Film Journalists Association. For The Film Yap, I write in-depth reviews and host the top-downloaded podcast on the site - conversations about cinema that try to be thoughtful without being pretentious, accessible to casual moviegoers and serious cinephiles alike.
I also work in communications for a manufacturing company, where I produce internal newsletters and content for our quarterly magazine, handle local PR and promotional content, coordinate all employee events, manage media relations, and shoot photography. It's about keeping people informed and connected, which turns out to be more creative than it sounds.
I'm good at making complicated things clear, meeting deadlines, and knowing what an audience needs. Whether it's a film review, a sports column, or an employee newsletter, I focus on writing that actually gets read.
I'm looking for remote opportunities in content creation, entertainment media, internal communications, or editorial work. If that sounds like a fit, let's connect!
