About Tom

I’m a professional writer, editor and journalist living in Pennsylvania. I created this site because I wanted a place to showcase my work. 

I’ve been getting paid to write since 1999. I went to work for my hometown newspaper right out of college before moving to metro journalism in 2001 and digital journalism in 2010. 

After going through two layoffs, I decided in 2014 to look for writing work outside of the journalism world, which led me to my first job as a copywriter. 

I’ve wanted to be a writer since I was 14 and can’t imagine being anything else. I turn in copy quickly and cleanly and never feel pressured by tight deadlines. I love learning new things and telling people’s stories. 

I’m a lifelong PA resident, currently residing in the Lehigh Valley with my girlfriend and our cat. When I’m not writing, I like to read, watch movies, and stress myself out trying to cook new things.
