Resume

As a freelancer, my reputation is my most important marketing tool.

Most clients find me through word-of-mouth. That’s why I leave a job better than I found it. My typical engagements last three to nine months and I’ve always been asked back for additional projects. You can view my resume , check out my 20+ recommendations on LinkedIn, and find me on WorkingNotWorking,
