Have a look at my work!
In addition to being a freelance writer/editor, I’m the founder, sole writer, editor, and webmaster for The Lincoln Squirrel, the online newspaper for the town of Lincoln, Mass. I was recognized as a finalist for the 2020 Investigation of the Year Award (“solopreneur” category) by Local Independent Online Publishers for a series of articles I wrote about the Lincoln Water Department.
