In more recent years, my work tends to go uncredited or, when I ghost write, credited to someone else. So I was pleasantly surprised when I was prompted for a bio after writing an article for MSN Lifestyle. It’s part of a holiday package on The Evolution of Shopping:

MSN Lifestyle: Shopping Innovations article

Read the full article.

I write so much about technology, I had forgotten how much fun it is to do a feature article!

These Living Proof profiles detail five organizations and the success they have had combating various health concerns worldwide:

  • GAIN – improved nutrition through food fortification
  • The GAVI Alliance – immunization
  • The Global Fund - prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis
  • PEPFAR - HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care
  • USAID – promote global health

Jacqui did all but the GAIN article, but we wrote in the same voice and edited each other’s work. We have more work for The Gates Foundation in the pipeline.
