  • Bio
I learned to write and review papers/fellowships as a PhD student at UCSD and as a postdoctoral fellow studying molecular neurobiology at Salk Institute in LaJolla. After that, I worked first as a full-time science writer first and then grant writer for City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center near LA. I continue to work for City of Hope on contract as a freelancer for clients at other institutes worldwide.

Editing clients ask me to help them on diverse types of basic science and translational papers and grants. Thus far in 2019:
  • I have helped clients write papers for submission to: Circulation, eLife, Blood, Science, Molecular Cell, Cancer Cell, Experimental Dermatology, Scientific Reports, Journal of Clinical Investigation, Nature and PLOS One, among others.
  • Clients have asked me to help them with grant proposals to the NIH (R01 and R21) and project pitches to NSF, and write proposals to private funders including the American Cancer Society, Doris Duke, and STOP Cancer.
  • I have helped prepare research summaries for promotion packages and job applications, write abstracts for upcoming meetings, and edit Author Summaries showcasing successfully published papers.
