My skill set includes blog writing and user guide authoring using Word and FrameMaker. I am also knowledgeable of single sourcing, topic-based authoring and content re-use practices. I have a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry and a post-baccalaureate diploma in biology from Simon Fraser University. In the summer of 2023, I also took two intermediate level French courses at the University of British Columbia.
