Her extensive writing and editing experience includes medical journal articles and textbooks, novels, theses, radio scripts, banking publications, and the Rice University alumni periodical.

His technical writing and editing expertise spans the range from newspapers to journals to academic texts. In particular, Mr. Lightman is sensitive to transcultural nuances, as he grew up reading, writing, and fluently speaking Spanish, French, and English and has taught and worked in all three languages. He is a graduate of McGill University in Montreal, Canada, and pursued graduate studies at Concordia University, also in Montreal.
