I am a freelance writer currently living in Missoula, Montana. For nearly a decade, I have worked in the home building industry as an advocate for improving the durability, comfort, healthiness and energy efficiency of new homes.

My work has helped builders, remodelers, developers and trades improve their knowledge of best-practice new home construction methods.

To help communicate the message of sustainable building and living, I generate articles, blogs, newsletters and essays on home building, do-it-yourself home improvement, and green building technologies.

I believe that in order to get people to actively exercise their social consciousness, we must first provide them with the opportunity to participate in environmental decisions that directly affect their lives.

I'm also a pretty good cook.
