Right now, my bread and butter is marketing strategy and copywriting. I've got experience with everything from naming and comprehensive web marketing to one-page ads and full-length book manuscripts. I'm still adding content to my website, Neededwriter.com
Much of my recent work has been helping my clients develop their online businesses with SEO, traffic generation, and social media strategy.
I've organized a team of freelancers called Bright Newt to help connect my clients with other creative professionals whose areas of expertise are different than mine. From branding, identity, and business development to design, web development, and photography, I act as a portal to people whom they can trust, and at the same time, I take care of administrative and other details. This way, organizations and individuals who can't afford the high rates of a traditional firm still have access to great talent and can develop a marketing strategy with all the different components working in concert.
Let me know if you'd like to become a part of this creative network—the bigger our pool of contacts, the better the value to all of our prospective clients.
Long term: I'm excited about the possibility of taking one of my blogs, gu.e (pronounced “goo”), and expanding it into a tribe of people who share their best anecdotes, absurdities, and irreverent banter. I could say a lot more, but I'd rather get together and have a conversation over coffee.

- Who are you? Tell us a little about you...
- I am a poet, writer, runner, avid flyfisherman, advertiser, and marketer. Most of my family lives in Nashville. I stayed in Knoxville because I fell in love with the city. Knoxville listens to young professionals in a way that many cities don't. I want to contribute to Knoxville's brain gain and see transformative ideas take root here.

Secrets for Entrepreneurs
The secret to entrepreneurial success is simple:
Look for gaps in different industries and sectors of the business world. Think of possible solutions—the means by which you can fill these gaps. Snoop around and see if anybody else has noticed the same gap. Research these competitors and then offer a solution with superior performance, a lower price, or a better value.
Always keep in mind, price and value are two different animals.
