I am editor of FCC Express, a weekly email agriculture newsletter and associate editor of AgriSuccess, a bi-monthly glossy magazine, both distributed by Farm Credit Canada.
I'm also associate editor of AGRIMag, a Maritime-based start-up magazine about agriculture in this region.
As well, I am a regular contributor to the FCC publications, along with journalists from across the country. AgriSuccess is edited by Kevin Hursh, the Saskatoon-based agriculture communications consultant.
I also want to help you tell your story, working with you to promote your business and your point of view, or teaching you how to tell your story yourself.

Professional Organizations
Canadian Farm Writers Federation is an amazing organization of agricultural communicators, including journalists, editors, broadcasters, and business and government communicators. I am the past president of CFWF. Within CFWF are provincial organizations and I was instrumental in the formation of the Atlantic Canada Farm Writers' Association. I am serving as the group's first president.
As part of a regional and national farm writers' organization, I am also a member of the International Federation of Agriculture Journalists, giving me a worldwide network of farm writers and communicators. I currently sit as Canada's representive on the IFAJ executive.
