Retired Writer, Public Speaker, Communication Specialist to tutor

Good Day. I'm Michael, 57, semi-retired after serving 18 years as a communication specialist. I was director of public relations and development (fund raising) for a major non-profit agency in the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania.

Please note I'm willing to travel up to 40 miles of Allentown, PA - Lehigh Valley.

My duties and specialties included: creating, writing, editing and photography for a quarterly 24 page color magazine; creator of all in-house and media relations publications; creator and director of trade show displays; public speaking at shows, seminars, meetings, etc.

Also I was a director for special charitable events: golf tournaments, charity balls, special fund raising events, and was the MC at most events.

Communications in all forms is my specialty and my passion.

Interestingly enough, I just completed my 36th year as a 13-18 yr. old boys baseball coach. The last five years were as head coach at a local high school. I specialize, but am not limited to hitting instruction - team or individual.

So, as you can see, I'm well-rounded, professional, with lots of experience and ready to supplement my retirement by helping today's youth and adults succeed.

Thanks,
Michael
