Juggling roles
Written by Jordan Bateman
I’m a busy guy.
I was a newspaper reporter for six years, before forming a freelance writing business in 2002. I’m a ghostwriter and editor for a few Christian and political speakers. I’ve just launched a second business, developing marketing tools for entrepreneurs. I am a first-term municipal councillor in Langley Township, B.C., serving 100,000 residents.

Written by Traci Gray
