Professional Experience
Skilled magazine editor and reporter with expertise in legal and women's issues. Published in Working Mother, I've profiled accomplished, activist women; covered child-care topics; and reported on workplace studies. I've tackled complex subjects like polygraph testing and trends such as home law practices. With nine years in managing and assigning editorial roles, I understand what it's like to be a staff editor because I've been there! Available for writing, editing, and fact-checking work.
