Hello!
As a fomer Los Angeles Times small-business writer, my Patch "beat" is covering business in Sherman Oaks. But I also write about whatever the Patch editors think is newsworthy!   So far, it's been great fun to get back into reporting and writing in addition to my public relations work as VTC2 (Vicki Torres Creative Communication). So, feel free to email me with tips at votorres@pacbell.net.
