Health
Health & medical writing has been been a mainstay throughout my career, including feature articles for consumer magazines (primarily Sacramento Magazine) and corporate publications, such as Vision Service Plan's (VSP's) in-house newsletter. My master's degree in counseling has come in handy when writing about mental health issues. I've also won two national writing awards for my health coverage (articles featured below).
