Profile

My kinesiology degree gives me an ideal background for editing books about sports and the health sciences. Areas of experience include anatomy, yoga, athletic training, biomechanics, exercise physiology, exercise management, nutrition, sport psychology, and sport sociology. I enjoy working on books about all sports, but my first love is hockey. I have an excellent grasp of English grammar and usage, a sharp eye for detail, and the ability to meet a deadline.
