As StreamPro’s Managing Director and an accomplished Divisional Operations Manager with over 40 years’ experience at the CSIR dedicated to driving and executing the organisation’s Research, Development and Implementation (RDI) mandate. I possess a broad range of authoring and editing skills underpinned with vast R&D expertise and experience in best business management practices acquired through crafting, editing and publishing a broad range of publications. Through a lifetime’s experience in Africa’s leading R&D organisation and decades of experience in document authoring, records management and diverse English editing roles, I’ve developed an in-depth understanding of various content types and the requirements for impeccable editing. My expertise ensures texts are grammatically correct, serve their intended purpose, and are comprehensible to their target audiences. My editing work has often involved applying plain language principles, conducting thorough research, fact-checking, and ensuring accurate referencing. I received a Distinction in the University of Pretoria’s dedicated Course – Editing: Principles and Practice, held in 2024.
