I have 25 years of experience, and specialize in the field of linguistics with specific knowledge in the areas of corporate communications, forensic linguistics and executive spokesmanship. I have published on such topics as public speaking, writing and editing and executive communications. I am one a very few academically trained linguists with many years of professional writing experience. I have written almost every kind of executive speech and developed original, linguistics-based principles for composing and editing speeches (as well as a linguistics-based system for playing and teaching jazz piano).
