In 2006, I began publishingThe Vancouver Voice, an alternative newspaper with a circulation of 20,000 in Southwest Washington.

I was the publication’s sole proprietor and publisher, handling all printing arrangements and contracts. I was also our senior editor. In 2008, I sold the paper to the News-Register Publishing Company after a short joint operating agreement.

At the Glasgow Courier, I liked to handle the layout for our agricultural supplement myself and have contributed to and managed special sections at many publications.
