1) As an award-winning writer: I help organizations in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors promote their products, programs, and services by communicating effectively through print, online and social media. My subject specialties include technology, science, engineering, healthcare, safety, tourism and hospitality. 2) As a professional editor: I proofread, edit, or rewrite text to ensure materials meet your corporate standards. I also interpret and clarify what your authors mean to say. This is particularly important if large documents or reports are written by different people, including those for whom English is a second language. 3) As a seasoned trainer: I help your employees refresh their business writing and editing skills. This is an on-demand service for individual coaching or group seminars and workshops. In addition, I can teach English as a Second/Foreign Language (ESL/EFL), focusing on business communications and academic English. My experience includes teaching IELTS preparation at the University of Waterloo (Renison College). More background: While my professional writing and editing skills are in English, I can also communicate in French, German, Russian, and Spanish. I am based in Canada, but have worked on marketing and communications projects in Europe, Asia, and the Caribbean. Before becoming a freelancer in 1993, I held increasingly senior corporate and marketing communications management positions in various industries including technology, telecommunications, pensions, and health & safety.
