Enter your professional bio here : I've been writing for as long as I can remember, but I've been a full-time freelancer since 1994. I consider myself a generalist who knows how to apply sound journalistic practices to every assignment I undertake. I never grow tired of the process of writing--shaping ideas into stories, talking to all kinds of sources, doing the research, wrestling the story to the page, and polishing the text until it shines to give the reader their money's worth and a little bit more.
