My work has included:

Brochures and flyers				Web pages

Go to my Marketing Collateral page to see samples of some of these projects.


I have also done pro bono marcom and development projects for:

Second Harvest Food Bank			Palo Alto Humane Society

Yosemite Fund

You can see samples of those on my Projects for Nonprofits page.


In addition to articles for corporate publications (customer magazines,
reseller newsletters, etc.), I have also written a number of consumer
magazine and newspaper articles, many of them illustrated with my
own photographs. The main topics I write about include:

Geocaching and other GPS-based activities
