I am based in Australia and have over twenty years experience working for major commercial publishing houses (Wiley, Cambridge University Press and McGraw-Hill). I am comfortable editing, writing and proofreading in any topic area. Recent examples of commercial publications that I have worked on are in my portfolio, as well as sample business, travel and sport articles that I've had published.
