WEB & EMAIL CONTENT
Let’s talk about me for a second. I used to write for a Microsoft-owned website called Sidewalk (now Citysearch.com). That gig helped me win an award for online feature writing from the Society of Professional Journalists. Subsequently, I have been the primary writer or collaborator for several lifestyle sites, including:

The Pearl Hotel (ALL original content) »View Site

Groove 24/7 (ALL original content) »View Site
