I'm a graphic designer and copy writer with a diverse  background, primarily in publishing and advertising (agency work). My freelance activity through the years has given me additional experience in all manner of marketing collateral including print, packaging and digital/web design.

 

I'm also a writer, adept at copy writing and full feature articles. I write copy for print and online ads as well as websites, most recently for my mobile app website at AuroraSymbols.com.  I've written articles for a few trade magazines and for Autism File Magazine as a featured contributor.

 

I'm involved in the community as an advocate for children with autism since 2004, having founded and run a nonprofit as well as volunteer for other organizations. I've designed two mobile apps to help children with nonverbal autism communicate and was  named the 2014 recipient of the National Autism Association's annual "Believe" award.
