Content Specialist & Editor, Success
About me
I have worked in the creative field for the last 25 years, covering everything from sports to city council meetings to technology. During that time, I’ve been a writer, designer, editor, publisher, and content specialist. I’ve also owned a variety of businesses (the first was a comic book store) and founded The Outrider Magazine in Wilmington, North Carolina and Food & Spirits Magazine in Omaha, Nebraska. Originally from Nebraska, I now call Wrocław, Poland home.
Favorite book
On the Road by Jack Kerouac
Favorite drink
Whiskey. No ice. No water. Just whiskey.
