I am a scholar (PhD Harvard) who worked for many years on a continuing research project in English literary and social history, which prepared its own publications for a university press. Besides honing my research and communication skills, this made me familiar with most aspects of book production. I have also taught at universities and worked for Ontario government agencies, a law firm, and advocacy groups. I have a keen eye for detail and strive for clear thought, clearly, simply, and elegantly expressed.
