As a former associate editor for Food In Canada, I have sampled my way through a Ben and Jerry's ice cream plant, ripped up a Kentucky warehouse on a brand-new Toyota fork truck, and enjoyed a hearty helping of “haggis and neeps” on a castle tour press junket in Scotland.
With a comprehensive list of communication-based roles, I am a freelance writer, editor and college professor seeking writing and editing opportunities. As a life-long learner and educator, I enjoy sifting through research and organizing data to write and present clear and concise copy.
I’ve asked thousands of questions, fleshed out fresh and innovative story angles and employed positive communication strategies from both my corporate communications toolkit and multiple teaching gigs.
My published work can be found in a variety of Metroland Media news sites:(Orangeville.com, Toronto.com and MuskokaRegion.com) plus a monthly restaurant/food/drink feature for Orangeville.com called Hungry in Headwaters.
I also regularly write about food for The Orangeville Citizen, in a monthly feature called Dining in Dufferin.
Over the years I have also written pieces for: Canadian Grocer, Marketing Magazine, Bakers Journal, Canadian Metalworking, Plant: Canada’s Manufacturing Magazine, Today’s Parent, The Ontario Technologist and The Globe and Mail.
