Profile
| Quote or Key Phrase | Fast, accurate, and enthusiastic. I bring life experience and curiosity to the table. |
| Personal Biography | I’m an editor and writer in Victoria, BC. I’ve worked for CBC Radio, the United Nations and other development agencies, and for myself. I recently upgraded my skills and, in 2018, graduated from Simon Fraser University’s Editing Certificate program. I’ve also had two novels published, Anna, Like Thunder (Brindle & Glass, 2018) and This Innocent Corner (Oolichan Books, 2010). So, I know what it’s like to edit and to be edited. I’m passionate about literature, languages, my community, and the west coast of Canada. |
