I am a writer, copy editor and proofreader who, after 13 years of teaching English, has excellent English Language skills as well as the ability to proof and edit copy so the completed work is ready for publishing.I received my University education in Canada at McMaster University and because I have lived both in North America and the UK, I am familiar with and can write in both American and British English, both formal and informal. I also have a variety of influences having worked in Education, Facilities Management, Health and Safety, Human Resource Management, Media and Advertising. As a result I can write intelligently on many topics.
