About Snee
Oh, I see you’ve stumbled onto my online hub. Welcome, fellow Internaut!
If you are a prospective employer, my resume and writing samples are available at the tabs above. Unfortunately, I don’t have any technical writing samples available as all of these documents are the confidential property of previous employers. If you contact me, however, I can supply references who will vouch for me.
If you’re not looking to hire me, then why not? As you can see from the image to the left, I’m housebroken and have all of my shots. Also, I’m a fairly decent softball player.
But, you don’t have to take my word for it.* Here’s what coworkers had to say about me:
“Rick worked for Whim as a staff writer and cartoonist, but his contributions to the magazine went far beyond that. In addition to developing articles and cartoons that significantly improved the quality of our publication, Rick was always willing to go beyond the duties of a staff member. He frequently stayed after hours to help the editing staff with proofing articles, and was always present when we needed volunteers. Rick also contributed significantly to our short film, in which he both starred and was a member of the writing team. Rick was a constant source of great content and new ideas that drove the magazine to publish better work and increase readership. His good humor and quick wit was also an asset; the production office was always in good spirits when Rick was around. I would strongly recommend Rick for any position seeking a creative, thorough, and dedicated individual.”
– Jenny Slaughter, Former Executive Director, Whim Internet Magazine, Radford University
“I would hire Rick if I could. That is the best recommendation I could give anyone. We worked at The Tartan (I as copy desk chief, he as section editor). He handled egos (like mine) with tact, treated delicate situations (race, sex, international politics, conflicting opinions) with care, resolved problems with the goal and the people in mind and didn’t try to be better than anyone. He just worked to be better at being him. He did his job, knew when the job was done and moved on to the next one.
“I don’t know of more to ask of a person unless you need a kidney.”
– Patrick Hopkins, News Editor, Laredo Morning Times
Former Copy Editor, Whim Internet Magazine and The Tartan, Radford University
“Rick is a talented and witty writer who proved to be responsible and mature in his work with student media at Radford University. He is personable and hard-working and was always a team player among our group.”
– Tim Jackson, Former Assistant Director for Student Media, Radford University
And if you’re stalking me, you can keep tabs on my latest doings.
