"Freelance editor and writer with a B.Sc. in occupational therapy."

Statement

Throughout my career as an editor, writer, and occupational therapist, I have worked collaboratively to develop written materials that clearly express ideas. Working with authors to deliver their message in an organized and engaging style is a critical piece of my work ethic. My recent communication work has been primarily in the field of health, but I am comfortable working in a variety of subject areas and look forward to broadening my horizons.
