Written
One of my favorite things about writing is the process. Beginning with a loose concept, a general idea, a basic framework, and turning it into a fully-developed piece. I love taking a topic that might not seem appealing or interesting to begin with, and crafting a final product that captures and holds onto the reader no matter what. I selected the pieces below to showcase a range of projects that I have worked on. While some of them came quickly and inspiration was plentiful, others took more time and research to come up with the final product.

Getting Ready for Hunting Season
In my position at Discount Ramps, research was a large part of my job as many of the subjects I was tasked to write about were unfamiliar to me. Hunting was one of those topics.
