About

I am an experienced editor who works with authors, academics, artists, and small businesses. I have copyedited scholarly texts published with academic presses and journals, worked with students from multiple academic disciplines at various stages of their graduate or undergraduate degrees, and worked with clients in the US, Canada, and abroad.

Over a decade of teaching at the university level has given me an expert editorial eye. My early career development took place leading small seminar discussion groups, and this instilled the importance of collaborative engagement to improve writing and critical thinking skills. I apply a similar philosophy in my editing, remaining in dialogue with clients to ensure that my edits and comments are tailored to their specific needs.

I have an M.A. in Philosophy from Brock University, an M.A. in Religion from the University of Toronto, and passed my Candidacy exam and all coursework in the PhD program in Comparative Literature from The Pennsylvania State University. Awarded a Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship for the 2016–17 academic year, I lived in Amman, Jordan while studying Classical and Modern Standard Arabic.
