My background includes five years as a magazine editor - a job which I very much enjoyed. Currently, I am working in research and policy analysis - a job that I love and which fits very well with my education and interests. However, I do miss the magazine work - and that is why I write and edit Wikipedia articles, as time permits. In line with my interests in music, these articles have been on women singer/songwriters, with a focus on new or emerging talent - particularly, but not exclusively, from Canada.

I enjoy working in the Wikipedia community, and have found other Wikipedians to be very helpful and supportive. I am always happy to see others making useful additions to the articles. Sometimes I get a bit discouraged by vandalism to the articles, but I have been impressed at how quickly and effectively the problems have been addressed by the administrators.


[edit] Articles

I have worked on and am helping to maintain these articles:

Alexz Johnson + articles linked to this, e.g., Instant Star

Alana Grace

Alexz Johnson is well-known from her lead role in Instant Star. I first found out about Alana Grace from the "Listeners Also Bought" section of the iTunes listing for Alexz Johnson. These are definitely two of the best singers out there.
