Writer/Editor, inRevision Storytelling

United States of America

As a writer, communicator, and storyteller, it is my goal to find challenging and meaningful work as an engaged and passionate citizen of the world, initiating a career trajectory that will allow me to create, collaborate and innovate, re-vising the old and designing the new in both our local and global communities.

inRevision Storytelling is my freelance writing and editing business.

When I'm not exploring my passion for storytelling in all its varieties, I can be found engaging in sitar-fueled curry cooking sessions, and trying (mostly failing) to learn Congolese Soukous-style guitar.

The Quiet Emergence of Emilio Pagan

Over the past two months, Emilio Pagan has emerged as something of a modest revelation for the Seattle Mariners. The rookie reliever has earned his keep on the big-league club as a bona fide innings-gobbler, quietly bringing stability and depth to the bullpen while soaking up outs with seeming impunity.
