Professional Experience

A certified obsessive-compulsive, I have a history of 20 years as a copy editor/proofreader. While I was the copy chief of a now-defunct division of a major publishing house, I also functioned as a part-time acting coach. I hold a certificate in geriatric emergency preparedness. Having survived the humiliation of auditioning to be a touring Muppet, I am now practically fearless. Thank you.
