About Me

Introduction

The most important thing I can tell you about myself is that I am always learning something. The world is rapidly changing and in order to stay at the top of my game I must continually acquire new skills. That thirst for knowledge led me to become the Valedictorian of my high school, as well as number one in my graduating class of 3000 Journalism majors at Texas A&M.

Many of my clients expect high quality work under severe time restraints - and I never fail to deliver. The skills I developed while earning two degrees in Journalism at Texas A&M have taught me how to take complicated concepts and communicate them in a way that anyone could understand. Because research is my specialty, I can assimilate and analyze projects in a fraction of the time.

I recently attended law school at the University of Texas, and I am now a licensed and practicing attorney. My legal experience primarily involves pharmaceutical litigation research, but I have also drafted a winning motion for a multi-million dollar case.

If you want someone who can quickly grasp the vision of your project and not deviate from your specifications: contact me.

If you want someone who can take a few broad guidelines and run with it under minimal supervision: contact me.
