Professional development (selected)

I have participated in a number of conferences for editors and translators.

I was a founding member and co-coordinator of Editors NL (now Editors Atlantic), the provincial section of Editors Canada, which involved organizing, attending, and sometimes presenting professional development activities. I received the Editors’ Association of Canada President’s Award in 2014.

I have taken Ryerson University’s copy editing (CDP102) and substantive and stylistic editing (CPD202) courses.
