Bio
I received my BA from the University of Toronto (English major, history specialist) and my MSc in Economic and Social History from the University of Oxford (specializing in 19th century England and Russia). I primarily work as a developmental editor, copyeditor, and proofreader. My favourite genres are fantasy and historical fiction (and their combination: historical fantasy!) but I also enjoy contemporary and science fiction works. I particularly welcome works highlighting BIPOC experiences or which centre neurodiversity, body positivity, and/or strong platonic relationships.
