My sixteen years' experience as an editor includes eight years as a consultant in all sectors, seven years as an in-house researcher/editor in the federal government, and one year as manager of the Plain Language Service at the Canadian Public Health Association. Enthusiasm for learning plus the ability to edit technical material have provided opportunities to work in many areas, including statistics, medical/scientific areas, taxation, policy development and evaluation. Clients praise my attention to detail and my ability to write in plain language. I also develop Web site material, using plain language.
