Portfolio
I am bound by non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) for most projects I have worked on. However, some clients were kind enough to let me use the following work samples. I've kept all the samples brief. Please note that clients may have made subsequent changes to their material.
Manuscripts, Screenplays & Short Stories
Excerpts from four different full-length fiction manuscripts.
The first sample is general fiction. It shows the material before it was edited, followed by my changes. The other three are in the young adult and sci-fi/fantasy genres.
Two feature screenplays I worked on: a war drama and a mystery/thriller. These works are WGA-registered, so details are restricted.
Blogs/Essays
The first blog was written for Gearproz.com, which produces fitness gear. The second is for a company that made skin care products.
A short story I edited with before-and-after versions. This story is in the first-person present tense.
Below is a chapter from a nonfiction manuscript I edited for a prominent psychiatrist in Southern California.
Technical Writing/Copywriting
An article I edited for CoatingsPro, a trade magazine owned by AMPP (Associations for Materials Protection and Promotion).
CoatingsPro also gave me an introduction/acknowledgment at the beginning of the first issue I worked on. Now you can see a picture of me!
I wrote/edited this instructional pamphlet for PrivaBeam, by Innova Design Co. The two samples are the front and back sides of the booklet.
Copy I wrote for Tequila Indianos.
Ecommerce
Below is a website I edited for a client running an upscale New York fashion company. The sample is a before-and-after look at the material.
I ran the Microsoft Teams devices website for over a year: writing, editing, translations, design, and us CMS
I provided content writing and editing for products for these five companies:
MS Powerpoint Presentation
This is an MS PowerPoint presentation I made for an economics professor regarding price indexes. I took the audio out because I did not have permission to use it. I created all the slides, helped write the content, and did all the editing.
Textbooks
Two edited chapters from economic textbooks by California State University, East Bay faculty members.
The third, fourth, and fifth samples for Pasadena City College.
