Writing

I love writing all kinds of material and have successfully completed projects from technical documents to fiction novels, memoir essays, and poetry. Writing has been my lifelong passion.

I began writing and editing technical documents professionally in 1998. I worked for IBM, VMware, Vendavo, and several startups, including PlanetRx, B2SB, and Cyanea Systems.

Below are some writing samples, both technical documents and non-fiction essays.
