An award-winning copywriter who worked at Rubin, Postaer in Santa Monica, I've been freelancing for many years as a copywriter, journalist, editor and proofreader. I've written for just about every medium except skywriting, and especially like to write radio commercials. I've always had a soft spot for radio, having spent time in front of a microphone as a music programmer.
