Qualifications

I bring a wealth of diverse skills and interests—and more than 10 years’ experience as a freelance editor and writer—to every project.

I am fascinated by the fluidity of language and its constant evolution with changing communication styles. In this ever-changing landscape, I believe that ongoing professional development is a vital component of my practice. I regularly participate in writing and editing workshops, complete college and university-level coursework, and am a member of several professional writing and editing organizations.
