Professional Profile

Freelance Writer. Content Uniter.

About Me:

If you are a healthcare entity or a legal firm, I can provide you with a variety of medical reports, timelines, newsletters, blogs, white papers, emails, articles and other types of content.

I can bring clarity and focus to your content - on time and within budget.

I am a Registered Nurse and copy writer with over 20 years’ experience in legal, pharmaceutical, medical device and patient safety realms. I have always been passionate about patients, and about using the written word to refine healthcare content, making it clear, accurate and accessible to people from all walks of life. I am detail-oriented, collaborative and efficient and I love the power of language!

I volunteer with organizations that fight for equality for all human beings, and I believe in equity and kindness. When I am not working, I can be found outdoors, enjoying the wildlife, water, and sunshine.
