Our Team
I have had the joy of publishing local magazines for more than 25 years. I love people, animals and helping things grow — especially community. Please reach out with your ideas and suggestions! We are here to serve you and we’re so excited to provide you with this companion for living well.
I’m a graphic designer with a malamute sidekick.
I love putting all the pieces together and telling stories that engage. I love to laugh. Having fun is my one true goal in life.
I’ve been in media sales for 40 years and love working with my clients and seeing their businesses grow.
I enjoy spending time with my wife, our two adult kids and our 3-year-old grandson. It’s not unusual to have a couple of them along with us camping in the mountains or at the coast.
With nearly four decades of admin experience, I keep us organized so we can best serve you. I love to encourage others as they discover their value and purpose. This writer, blogger, freelancer, strategic thinker, encourager, creative, God’s kid, wife, and dog mom loves spur-of-the-moment lunches with friends, small towns, and long drives.
