On the birth of my first child who had significant medical difficulties, I left the academic world and spent many years as a freelance editor and writer, including medical editing. Clients include the National Endowment for the Humanities, Dominican University and the Chicago Symphony. I currently work as part of the support team of the Dermatopathology Laboratory of Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago, one of the top 10 hospitals in the U.S., while continuing work as a freelance editor and teaching violin and viola.
