I am a freelance copy editor and a proofreader of the Hansard when the Nova Scotia legislature is in session. In my down time I read, solve puzzles, do yoga, go on hikes, cycle, swim, make music (I play euphonium in two concert bands), and I’m an active community volunteer.
I have been writing and editing for over forty years, in professional positions such as software documentation specialist and newspaper editor, and as a freelance editor working with many clients. I maintain a high-ranked profile on the Upwork freelance site. Currently (2022) most of my work is for Moose House Publications, a publisher in Nova Scotia, and for the Apache Software Foundation, one of the largest organizations developing and distributing free and open-source software.
