I’m an experienced freelance journalist and content writer with exceptional writing and editing skills. I also have extensive experience in videography and video editing. I’ve reported for and contributed to various outlets including BBC, Reuters, The Hill, First Things magazine, Washington Examiner, New Statesman, Foreign Policy, The Federalist, Spectator USA, The Week, Arc Digital, The American Conservative, National Newswatch, and Roads & Kingdoms. My work has also appeared in the Toronto Sun and Canada’s largest independently-owned newspaper, the Chronicle Herald. I recently finished four years working for Brown Brothers Media, including daily articles on relationships, spirituality, life hacks and self-development (www.ideapod.com and www.hackspirit.com). My articles tended to focus on spirituality and man's search for meaning. In 2015 I covered the New Hampshire presidential primary for The Federalist web magazine and prior to that served as managing editor of The Enterprise-Bulletin newspaper in Collingwood, Ontario, Canada. I have reported from the former-Soviet Republic of Georgia south of Russia and in Hungary including shooting the documentary "This is Georgia" in 2012. In addition to journalism I have work experience in educational publishing and commercial law. I am also currently doing content marketing work for clients in the travel, education, hospitality, healthcare and home design industries. I'm familiar with SEO and how to get content to rank higher in search results. English is my first language and I also speak and write French, German, Portuguese, Spanish, basic Hebrew and Georgian. I'm interested in learning Russian, Arabic and Hebrew in the future. I also worked for four months writing scripts and editing for Debacle Economics YouTube channel on YouTube which covered history, politics, economics, etc. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIY9kvM24fc and https://youtu.be/HS16l5OB6ec are two of the videos I did for them). I've had the chance to report from many areas of the world inc
