I currently enjoy writing for a variety of online publications including Helium. I am also a contributing writer and editor for four company newsletters. I am working to expand my experience from the technically driven into fiction and informative articles on many of the subjects that interest me. ADDD(Attention Deficit Disorder) and Aspergers Syndrom, corporate party and event planning, teaching and science are all subjects in which I have published online articles.
