I have enjoyed working with authors and editing their texts since 1982.   I have also had the good fortune of spending 15 years (1982–1997) writing and editing in Japan and in subsequent years working with many ESL writers. Now in the United States, I have worked on behalf of every type of writer: academic, scientific, financial, student, journalist, creative writer, and others.  For all projects, I follow my clients’ specifications and meet all deadlines. I return an edited copy with all changes clearly indicated (i.e., tracked changes in red) and provide numerous comments and suggestions. I also follow up promptly on all e-mail messages to resolve any pending issues.  My availability is seven days a week to meet my clients' needs. I live in the Eastern Time Zone (North Carolina) and typically start my day at 6:00 a.m. and then edit until the day's work is done. I look forward to working with you, and thank you for entrusting your documents to me.

I'm currently A PhD candidate in Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Guelph. I have experience writing, reading, and editing scientific articles and essays in several fields. Before my PhD, I completed a BSc Honors in Biochemistry also at the University of Guelph. I am the recipient of many academic awards, and currently hold a grant from CIHR.
