Complex Ideas.
Simple Explanations.
I’ve written in a lot of different fields from engineering trade magazines to pure fiction. Along the way, I’ve worn a lot of hats and picked up a wide range of different talents, but there’s always been one skill that’s bound this eclectic body of work together: I know how to take a complex topic, learn everything there is to know about it, and explain it in an entertaining and sensible way. Below, you can see some of my work around the internet doing exactly that!
Industry Shop Talk
When I started at Gear Technology, I had to learn through doing — researching, writing, and getting my interviewees to open up and teach me their craft. Pretty soon, I was one of the go-to reporters for talking shop about cutting edge machining trends and products!
Entertaining Anecdotes
Those outside the industry probably imagine gears are a pretty dry topic, but interesting stories can spring from anything! I excel at storytelling and love to highlight the human element in even mundane situations. And over the years, I’ve gotten a few chances to do so.
Technical Editing Expertise
Alongside my other work, I’m a deft hand at tightening up highly technical and complicated copy without spoiling the voice or meaning of the author. Ever had to fix up a research paper by a German technician that doesn’t quite understand English syntax? I have!
Capturing an Audience
At First Five, I connected with an underserved market — adult professionals looking to keep up with their favorite hobby — and built a dedicated following by highlighting games that fit their lifestyle. I know how to analyze a target audience and get them to pay attention.

Quality Media Analysis
I expanded my work to long-form media analysis, talking in-depth about how and why a game works the way it does. If you need someone to take a complicated topic and break it down in an entertaining way anyone can understand, I’m your guy!

A Full Hat Closet
Building a youtube channel solo from the ground up, I’ve had to wear a lot of hats — video and audio editing, social media management, community management, and graphic design. I’ve picked up a wide range of value-added skills that you might need!
