Born in Canada in 1963, I was transplanted to the U.S. in 1965. From 1984 through 1994 I worked in healthcare and in medical publishing.
Although I did some fun stuff along the way---like doing horror book reviews for Publisherss Weekly, helping to organize the Bram Stoker Awards, developing a Writers Digest book with Mort Castle for the Horror Writers Association called Writing Horror, and winning a national 'Award of Poetic Excellence'---there was a huge divide, though, between my personal philosophy on health (especially holistic healing) and the mainstream medical (establishment) ideology that I indirectly supported via my work in hospitals and medical publishing.
I began to crave a work life that matched my personal health and health-empowerment beliefs. Along came an opportunity to serve as editor-in-chief of Better Nutrition magazine from early 1995 (where I had to chance to work with the veteran health journalist, Frank Murray), where I stayed until 2002.
In September 2006 (after a four-year stint as regulatory affairs officer for Nutrition 21), I headed up a group of trade magazines for a year and a half---and, in January 2008, I began work as the head of communications for Solgar Vitamin and Herb, a company whose products and commitment to education (and quality) I deeply admire and respect.
