About Me

Marketing and communications for A/E/C. Proposal writing, advertising, award submissions, writing & editing, layout & design, event planning, people coordinating..

but dreaming of a day when my laptop is my only office supplies and the "office" is a distant memory.

and I don't think I'm entitled to it, I'm working very hard to get myself there.
