About

If you’ve lived in Lawrence, Kansas long enough, you start to notice a few things. The protest signs change fonts, the coffee shops change names, and the traffic cones are forever. I should know. I’ve lived here for more than 20 years, with a few strategic intermissions for dramatic effect.

I bought my first house here. I started a family here. I earned my Journalism degree from KU. Over time I also learned to decode the local dialects, including “Commie” and “Candy-Ass.” So yes, I’m fluent in Lawrence.

Professionally, I’ve spent 15+ years helping businesses grow online through sharp content, and a refusal to settle for digital mediocrity. I’ve worked with local institutions and national brands to boost visibility, climb search rankings, and turn clicks into customers.

CompareLawrence.com isn’t a monument to my life choices. It’s a tool for people who want to make better decisions in the town I call home. It helps you compare local services, spot hidden gems, and identify the burrito most likely to redecorate your shirt in the most lovable way possible.

I love this town. I love it even when it yells at me on Facebook. If this site helps you love Lawrence more, or at least navigate it with fewer regrets, I’ll count that as a win.
