I love Patch. I use energy produced by the people in our communities to fuel your hyper-local sites.
The good-bad-ugly of City government, student successes, trials and tribulations of police and fire, business highlights, small feats, and amazing people doing extraordinary things are the core of California Patch.
I am so excited and honored to have worked for California Patch sites as a Freelance Writer, then a Guest Editor, moving up to a full-time writer.
