Ethan Place

Welcome to my portfolio site.

The writing and editing samples you’ll find here range across more than three decades, representing a broad spectrum of clients, disciplines, topics, technologies, and audiences.

What this work has in common is a devotion to articulating exactly what needs to be articulated—fluently and forcefully. It drives home a message, but also starts a conversation. It disentangles complexities, and clarifies nuances.

All with an eye for flair and an ear for language’s inner harmonics.
