It is hard to believe I have accumulated more than thirty years of research and writing experience. While attending the University of Missouri in the early 1990s I began the lifelong-odyssey of writing. I have numerous published articles, blog posts and book chapters, many of which are available on the resources page of my website. I am always interested in writing opportunities whether genealogy, preservation, history or policy-related. Contact me today!
