I don't trust numbers. Odd thing to say, I know, but I trust letters and words because I understand them and know how to manipulate them.

Words and communication are my thing, naturally. I like to get inside the heads of the target market to understand their needs and figure out new ways to capture their attention. I’m a studious researcher and I love editing as much as writing. Sometimes more.

That said, I prefer working on projects where there are others as vested as I am. I try to remember not to take myself too seriously and I like to put humor on the table whenever possible. I have a silly sense of humor and more than anything else I like to make people laugh. Usually, I am the butt of my own jokes! I hate bullies and always fight for the underdog.

I think grammar is vital and punctuation is key; however, common language must prevail. If the target market is more likely to take action with a jaunty 'Here stupid!' than they are with a 'Click below for more information', then 'Here stupid!' is best.

I have tons of experience working remotely, in distributed teams, and in the traditional office setting. I prefer the remote experience because it allows me to work from my 2nd home in Mexico where it’s hot. I’m allergic to the cold, so being hot is important. When I’m not in Mexico, I’m trying to keep warm at my first home the Greater Vancouver Area; the killer view from my office window is my consolation prize. No matter where in the world I am located, I take your project seriously and am committed until it's completed to your satisfaction.
