Rhowuniong started as a journalist on the island of Guam in 1986. In '88, he enlisted in the US Army, and left his budding journalism career in exchange for the military service in the name of freedom.
More than 10 years later, he came back to Guam and try to pick up where he left off with his former career. Since then he's been writing for most of the major newspapers and magazines in the area.
A strong feature story writer at local publications, Rhowuniong gravitated immediately to success stories at AWAI.
Now, for his Online copywriting start-up, he writes powerful success stories that will engage your readers. Not only are his stories gripping, but they are typically very informative and entertaining... compelling readers to consider his clients' products/and or services against the best choices on the market.
The Guam resident enjoys helping small to mid-size businesses worldwide with their case studies (or customers' happy-ending stories, as he likes to call them.).
But as a Christian B2B content writer, he writes other copies he enjoys, including: emails, blog post, social media, autoresponder, white paper, press release, article, sales letter, av scripts, print Ads, and more.
"I take my work very seriously because I'm responsible for every piece I write for my clients," Rhowuniong said.
As such, this veteran writer does not outsource his work.
He added: "Every client is very precious to me, and I go above and beyond the call of duty for each and every one of them. That's always my promise!"

Rhowuniong was U.S. Army Reserves sergeant Alex J. Choun before he left military for good in 1999.
As a reservist, Sgt. Choun was part of the 671st Engineer Unit in Portland, Oregon, from 1994 to 1999.
As immediate supervisor to his float bridge erection crew, Choun conducted frequent bridge operation exercises on rapid moving rivers; and loading and off-loading bridge boats on transports...including preventive maintenance, checks and services (PMCS) on numerous bridge bays.
In 1988-1992, he was part of the U.S. regular Army ... mostly overseas.
He spent several years in the Federal Republic of Germany as part of 75th Supply Company in Darby Kasern, Nurnburg; which later relocated to the beautiful southern countryside of what used to be Dolan Barracks at Schwaebisch Hall in the beginning of 1989.
According to the city of Schwaebisch Hall's Web site (http://www.schwaebischhall.de/en/welcome/to-our-american-friends.html), "Dolan Barracks is now called Solpark and is no longer home to the US Army.
The last unit departed in April 1993 and the area was turned over to the German authorities in October of that year.
"Solpark, now home to German families and light industry, is accessible (to everyone).
Much has changed including the familiar post entrance and street plan."
Choun later became part of 7th Support Grp., HQ Unit 35 miles away at McKee Barracks in Crailsheim (closed in 1993) from 1990-1991.
An article in The Globe stated: "By January 1994, though, the barracks were quiet. The soldiers moved out and the trucks and tanks moved on. The once bustling community within a community was gone, and it seemed a barren wasteland to the people of Crailsheim.
"The property went to the German government, and the city of Crailsheim had an opportunity to purchase some of it, most notably some of the buildings that housed American troops. Several of the buildings were renovated into private apartments. Meanwhile, many of the remaining buildings were demolished to clear the land for development."
On Thanksgiving Day, Choun found himself in the belly of a C-130 loading his hummer for Desert Shield/Desert Storm.
After the Federated States of Micronesia citizen-turned-US-soldier did his four years active duty in the US Army under the Compact of Free Association between the two countries, Choun later joined the Army Reserves and ... eventually ... came back home to Micronesia as a civilian.
In his home state of Chuuk, FSM; he reclaimed his original roots and became Alex J. Rhowuniong... and taught at a Jesuit high school, Xavier high. He also coach basketball, volleyball and published and edit their school newspaper.
A few years later, he moved on to their local community college where he taught, coordinated an education/cultural program as the Chuuk Culture and Education specialist.
He also published and edited the school paper as well as coached their girls' volleyball team to a collegiate championship trophy in 2002.
Rhowuniong later and moved to Guam in 2005.
For 14 years, he has been unsuccessfully trying to file for a back injury he sustained in LOG BASE ECHO in Saudi Arabia a few days before the ground war began in 1991.
Unofficially disabled, tired and worn out; Rhowuniong hopes to be able to finally settle his claim soon.
A Christian, the 55-year old continues to cling to his faith in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, sustaining and providing for him daily.
Praise God Almighty!
