Sam West

Capitol Hill, Seattle, Washington

After a four-year stint in the coffee biz, I am working to establish myself as a writer in Seattle.

In my spare time, I have extensively hiked throughout the Cascade Range, especially the Casecade Volcanoes. Taking my experiences hiking, climbing, and learning about Mt. Rainier, I wrote a book called A Dangerous Paradise. Currently, I am looking for a publisher to provide a home for my project.

My professional writing experience includes:

  • Essay Editor for College Planning Solutions, Inc.
  • Word Processor for KPFF Consulting Engineers
  • Freelance reporter with the Seattle Gay News
