I have worked with CRELLA on various initiatives and served as consultant for the British Council (Aptis) and Paragon Testing Enterprises (Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program and the Canadian Academic English Language Test).

I have taught EFL, ESL, and EAP since 2005, spanning elementary to university. I have taught credit and non-credit courses at the university level, and have guest lectured on topics in applied linguistics, most recently at the University of Saskatchewan.
