Authors' editing and translation
I help scholars publish journal articles in fields relating to language, cognition and learning both within and across individuals and within and across societies and cultures. Within that, I work in: 

• Linguistics and all its subfields, including psycholinguistics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, first and second language acquisition, cognitive and functional approaches to syntax and linguistic theory, and linguistic description
• Language and cognitive disorders and testing
• Cognitive psychology
• Cognitive science
• Second language instruction and learning; computer-mediated instruction
• Theories and scholarship of teaching and learning, teacher training, teacher identity

And because my education and experience ranges from the more qualitative and narrative end of the spectrum and to the more quantitative and experimental end, I sometimes work in the fields of:

• Anthropology
• Literature
• Peace, conflict and justice studies; international relations
• Industrial organization, management and behavior

Writing support services
I'm a trained structured writing reteat facilitator, meaning I create and hold a space that lets academics get their writing done and out the door. I also participate in and facilitate other types of social writing, including structured co-working sessions with editors and translators in MET's Humanities and Social Sciences Hub.

I also teach academic writing seminars to developing scholar-writers.
