About
I’m a writer and editor from Halifax, Nova Scotia. My work can be found in both local and national publications, including Reuters, Metro Canada, Halifax Magazine and The Chronicle Herald. Above all else, people describe me as being curious. I always want to know more about things and I’m always asking questions. Despite some time spent in France teaching skating lessons and a stint on the rigs in Alberta, it was inevitable I would become a writer. Besides the fact I always loved to read newspapers and magazines, I always had an obsession with details and chronology. Consider this entry from a journal I had to keep in Grade 3: “——————————————————————————.” Forget about the poor grammar and punctuation, it’s clear my future career choice was made a long time ago.

Special Projects
Besides writing, I take on special project involving editing. Not a day goes by where I don’t read something that doesn’t make any sense or is laced with errors. I polish clients’ documentation so it makes sense, the style is consistent and it’s grammatically correct. Most importantly, I make sure it’s actually interesting to read. John Ruskin put it well when he said: “Say all you have to say in the fewest possible words or your reader will be sure to skip them; and in the plainest possible words or he will certainly misunderstand them.” I help clients do just that.
