Shannon Webster
I am a technical writer living in Western Maryland. I have worked with federal and state governments over the past decade, as well as in the financial sector. I run a website which takes a second look at politics in America.
I am the oldest of three children and was always drawn towards writing. My grandmother was my biggest inspiration and motivation for wanting to write about things that interest me. I have lived in Europe, Asia and all across America. I have met a lot of people and learned many valuable skills. I served in the military during September 11th, and was stationed overseas for the majority of my four years.
I have written articles about politics, finance, technology, science, investing, gay rights, gay marriage and civil liberties. My expertise lies in politics and finance. I specialize in taking complex issues and simplifying them, so anyone can understand the information.
