I am Head of Research at LeafScore.com, have had bylines in the National Observer (Canada), and have a robust author reputation online.

    As a graduate with a First Class Honours degree in English and Philosophy, and a foundational degree in Nutritional Therapy, I have an excellent command of language and am very comfortable with technical and medical information. I have experience writing for both online and print publications, as well as editing and proofreading manuscripts for print and online content.

    Since 2010, I have worked as a Knowledge Translation Expert with a wide range of clients including nutrition supplement companies and retailers, family physicians, surgeons and naturopathic doctors, fitness coaches, medical and health start-ups, health food companies, eco-friendly innovators, and more. For several years, I worked as Content Manager for a suite of websites providing patient-facing information on back surgery, neck pain, infectious disease, and stem cells, as well as natural health interventions for heart disease and skin problems.

    I have also provided medical review for articles on a top-ranking health information website and currently ghostwrite for a popular health and wellness influencer. In January 2013 I was creative lead and sole copy writer for a start-up company manufacturing vegan dog food, allowing the company to continue using carefully structured blurbs for current marketing purposes.

    More recently, I have been focusing on environmental health and ecotoxicology with Leaf Score, where I research and write about topics such as air pollution, recycling, endocrine disrupting chemicals, commonly found toxic chemicals in textiles, toiletries, baby products, and so forth.
