    • I've also worked with American Sentinel University, Celtic Cat Publishing, and the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County.


    Prior to freelancing full time, I graduated with honors from the University of Chicago, earned an MA from the University of Michigan, and worked for Borders (at both the retail and corporate levels) and Crain Communications. As the author of numerous courses and texts, I am familiar with the experience of receiving as well as providing edits. :-)
    (I do excise emoticons from formal writing, but I'm pretty relaxed when off-duty. After all, I hang out with a stuffed crustacean...)
    For more information, please e-mail me. I look forward to hearing from you.
