The unique talents I bring to any role are positivity, humor, and an ability to build quick, lasting relationships with others. The skills I've picked up to build on these include "old school" AP style news writing, "new school" SEO principles and affiliate content strategy, and the fundamentals of digital, multimedia publishing.Ultimately, though, whatever I’m doing, it’s about people. Great stories come from meaningful and honest relationships with your audience — and colleagues!
