I am a freelance writer and editor with an honours degree in Professional Writing from York University.

My greatest passion is the environment, and I am always on a quest to tread a little lighter on our world. Making conscious and informed consumer choices is a great way to lead a greener life. It is my wish to convey to readers that even the smallest of green steps can have a big and positive impact.
