About

As an editor, I do substantive/structural editing, copy and line editing, and proofreading. My parenting and/or mental health stories have appeared in Canadian Family, Canadian Living, CrossCurrents: The Journal of Addiction and Mental Health, Flare, ParentsCanada, Network Magazine and Today's Parent. My travel stories have appeared on AOL, in Doctor's Review, en Route, familytravelfiles.com, The Globe and Mail, The Montreal Gazette, The Plain Dealer and The Toronto Star. I have written about a range of experiences: from a Spanish school in Guatemala, to spas in Mexico, to family resorts in Jamaica, to biking in Quebec, to yoga in the Bahamas.
