It's Priceless

I have been originating creative enterprises based on an addiction to exceptional storytelling and brand building for more than 25 years, including launching four entertainment and real estate startups and producing three internationally award-winning books and films that have premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, been featured on The Today Show, NPR, BBC, MSNBC, and SiriusXM, and re-printed in dozens of countries and languages. 

As a writer, photographer, and producer, I've created consistently award-winning content—including magazine features, books,  television series, film scripts, podcasts, and website and digital marketing copy—for National Geographic, Forbes,  Magnolia Pictures, The Learning Channel, History Channel, Discovery  Channel, McGraw-Hill, Karben Publishing, Outside, Men's Journal, Playboy,  and the acclaimed podcast series WaitWhat all while deftly rolling with every new punch the never-ending changes in media and technology throw at us. 

I also work with B2C and B2B brands, start-ups, Fortune 500 companies, CEOs, celebrities, and public relations and marketing agencies to shape brand identity, voice, and messaging through web content, podcast and video scripts, blog posts, thought leadership articles, white papers, marketing copy, and ghostwritten books that engage readers, drive customer conversion, increase exposure,  build loyalty, and create opportunity. My clients are leaders and game-changers in innovation, travel, real estate, technology, design, food and wine, music, sustainability, energy, and the environment.
