I started out as a newsletter writer/editor for the Micronesia Support Committee from 1975-1984. During this time, I was also a freelance writer for various magazines. I started as a newspaper reporter with the Marshall Islands Journal in December 1984 and had my first byline story in the paper in the December 28, 1984 edition. By the end of March, 1985 I was named editor of the weekly newspaper, a position I have held since that time except for a couple of periods of about a year in the early- and mid-1990s.
