I am a Chicago-based Web-designer/ writer/ Internet marketing specialist. I've worked in publishing for more than 15 years as a magazine editor, Web designer, book author, magazine feature writer, and Web director (pretty much in that order).
Here is a collection of my work and other things I find interesting.
