Writer, Journalist, Educator (retired)
I am a writer who worked in technology and education. After working 15-years for the phone company I got a bachelor’s degree in journalism, then my teaching credential and spent the next 28-years teaching technology and communications in public schools in California and Las Vegas and at Full Sail University in Florida. From the beginning I’ve been writing about my experiences and observations in multiple mediums, from years of personal journals, to dozens of songs and short stories, to experiments in photography, film and video making, and online journalism.
I used to think that it was a problem that I wasn’t a one-subject writer and realized that it can be overwhelming and more than a little confusing to someone who might wander onto my websites and my posts. Thus, I’ve organized this website into two parts:
- News/Editorial: This is where I’ve posted articles and editorials about Education, News, Technology, Media/Pop Culture and Religion. This is the “Journalism” side of my writing.
- Writing Projects: This is where I’ve posted my more “creative writing,” that take the form of short stories and satire. This is where I plan to post my longer form (book) projects.
Enjoy!
