Editor | Project Manager | Ethnomusicologist
I am an editor, researcher, and project manager, with a history of academic writing and editing, based in Northern California and Arizona. I am originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and recently earned a PhD in ethnomusicology from the University of California, Davis, for which I conducted a multi-year research project on musical locality and groove in Arizonan flamenco. I also have masters degrees in ethnomusicology (UC Davis) and musicology (Northern Arizona University). I have special knowledge of music and academic research, writing, and publishing, and an affinity for integrated media and collaborative projects.
I currently work as an editor in the Accreditation Office at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson, and I freelance as an editor, proofreader, and reviewer. I have reviewed manuscripts for academic journals, including SAGE's Space and Culture, and I have edited for the following scholarly publications: the Society for Ethnomusicology's SEM Student News, a biannual digital publication created and operated by student scholars; the online academic journal Analytical Approaches to World Music; and Writing on the Edge, an interdisciplinary journal focused on writing and the teaching of writing.
