I discovered writing and history as a passion in high school. I became a published author my junior year with two poems published in a book of student poems. I enjoyed researching and producing term papers in college. I have produced numerous newsletter for various organizations, the latest being a quarterly for the Eastern Wyoming Colleg GEAR-UP Program. 5 years ago I was the editor of the community pages for a local classified newpaper in Cheyenne, Wyoming. When living in Colorado and Texas 10 years ago I was a book indexer for the Gale Group of the Thompson Press and was a member of the American Society of Indexers. I also did a blog for 5th and 6th graders on Colorado History.
