Speciality
My strength is my ability to approach writing thematically. This means I am able to write with meaning and purpose. Writing is an art, but not necessarily always an artistic expression. Often it is expression of a message. This message may be commercial, political, spiritual or social in nature. My role is to understand the message and fit it into the desired format (i.e. 30 sec. spot, TV sitcom, corporate video or even a stage play).
