Writing Samples Available
Speaker:
Regardless of the topic, my goal as a speaker is an exchange of ideas. I engage my audience in conversation to both respond to specific questions and deliver vivid “on-topic” descriptions of the subject matter. I draw on my experience as a Student Affairs professional, a Jewish educator, a Writer, and as an Artist. My presentations are appropriate for teachers, students, and community members.
Topics include:
• On Your Own: What wasn’t mentioned in the college brochure?
• What would you do with a GAP year?
• Art Changes Lives, lets start with yours
• Guerrilla ART: beautiful acts of resistance
• Historical look at Monotheism /Judaism
• Holocaust* (particularly useful for those using literature to teach about the Holocaust)
*Note Regarding Holocaust Presentations:
I do not use multimedia, internet, or photos of a graphically disturbing nature when discussing the Holocaust as students are often a “captive audience.” I find it is more effective to engage students through activities that enhance understanding (but do not simulate the events) of WWII. Understanding the Holocaust as a crime that impacted Jewish individuals overwhelmingly, but by no means exclusively, is the how we begin to understand the wrong that, more than 70 years later, still touches each of us.
How to Contact Me
NOTE: My emphasis is on featuring freelance writers who charge professional rates. I set limits on rates accepted here (no less than $50 per article / per page / per hour), so you don't have to worry about getting lost in a sea of extremely low-priced writers like you do in the all-too-common "race to the bottom" bidding marketplaces.
Information for Clients
Are you tired of being bombarded with pitches from unqualified writers when you advertise on classified or bidding marketplaces? If you're looking to pull your next writer from a more professional pool, look no further.

You can browse their profiles below by category or search for any keyword related to your project and use the contact information each writer provides to discuss project details with them.

Information for Freelance Writers
Most high paying freelance writing jobs are never publicly advertised. Clients frequently search for qualified writers independently. They find writers through referrals. Or they receive direct queries. Help those clients find you with a listing in our professional freelance writer directory.*
If you're looking for advertised gigs in the meantime, consider browsing my freelance writing job board, where I post ads direct-from-clients as well as curate ads from other sources (the vast majority featuring pay information so there's no guessing before you take the time to apply).
