About the Editor
I have been editing business, personal, professional, marketing, and academic documents for over 15 years. I always find it incredibly rewarding because my skill set is versatile, and has taken me across the U.S. and around the world. I've served clients in the U.S., Canada, Germany, China, Taiwan, Norway, Mexico, the UAE, and Tel Aviv, on-location and from afar.
I am currently Editorial Assistant for the Taylor & Francis publication RELIGION, and Marketing Editor for a regional motorcycle race team. I was previously managing editor for an online peer-reviewed political science journal, and have held positions in the non-profit sector, the motorcycle industry, the gourmet food & beverage industry, in academia, finance, and government. I enjoy helping out at a local thrift shop in my city, too. My own non-fiction writing and poetry are published in Canada, China, and the U.S.A. I am also an award-winning spoken word poet, a motorcycle rider, a former U.S. diplomat to China, and a member of the Editorial Freelancers Association and International Association for Near Death Studies.
