My Experience

I have been an editor and medical writer since 1998, and I started my freelance business in 2013. I am a Certified Professional Editor (CPE) through Editors Canada’s certification program, and I am a Board-Certified Editor in the Life Sciences (ELS). I specialize in health communication, including patient education, adherence, and continuing medical education.

I have worked on staff at AboutKidsHealth.ca at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), I.C. Axon, and Communimed Inc. Through my full-time and freelance agency work, I have written and edited projects for more than a dozen major pharmaceutical companies.

My Education

I have a BSc in chemistry from McGill University. I stay current in my field through continuing education courses and seminars, conferences, extensive reading, and a wide network of knowledgeable peers.

My Trusty Assistants

As health and safety officer, morale booster, eater of leftovers, and barker at miscreants, Blue (2006-2016) is a much-missed member of my team.
