FAQs
-
With “et al.,” the unnamed others in a citation, I center scholars who feel like outsiders. I understand outsider perspectives as strengths, not weaknesses. And I work to help more scholars find a seat at the table—or, at least, build their own table to sit at.

In addition to my academic training, I have taken courses on developmental editing for academics with Manuscript Works and Ideas on Fire. I also participate in webinars and trainings with the Editorial Freelancers Association.
