My Tribe: 11

I've enjoyed three wonderful careers, all of which have required writing. I started with a Ph.D. in Romance Languages and Literatures. Got a job as a professor of French and Women's Studies at UMass, Boston, publishing one scholarly book and a number of articles of literary criticism. Then I spent 11 years doing organizational development and human resources management at a Fortune 100 company, during which time I did instructional design and wrote lots of pieces detailng programs that I managed, or simply summarizing and reporting for upper management. Currently, I own a dog daycare, grooming, and training shop called The Doggie Den. I write and photograph my own website: www.thedoggieden.net. Our blog is www.doggiecare.blogspot.com. Our brochures, advertising, online descriptions and social networking are all authored by yours truly. And, yes, I have written an unpublished novel!

My articles span the three areas of my professional experience: language and literature; management coaching, organizational development and human resources; and dogs as pets or in business. I excel at academic writing, business writing, journalism, blogging, website copy, and copy editing in my three areas of expertise. I especially enjoy packaging business ideas and business offerings for maximum effectiveness, whether you need a concise paragraph or an article.

I've lived in northern New Jersey; New Mexico; New York City; Connecticut; Boston, San Francisco; and Paris, France. I loved them all, but Paris will always have a special place in my heart. I've traveled throughout the United States and Europe.

Currently, I live and work in central MA. with my two dogs and one cat.
