WORK EXPERIENCE
For almost 10 years I have provided publishing and communications support on an outsourced basis. Since 1997 I have worked primarily in the Web industry. Some projects I've completed solo; for projects with a larger scope, I've put together teams of consultants and freelancers.
Below are the clients who have engaged me for extended projects since 1997, either as a freelancer or as an employee. For a more inclusive client list, go to Clients.
