Tania Burchell, Former Science Writer/Editor at McGraw Hill

I had the sincere pleasure of working with Dana when I was directing an enormous science-based literacy project for Achieve 3000 at McGraw Hill. I needed creative, engaging, professional writers who were not only qualified educators but who were also bona fide scientists—a combination of experience that is extremely difficult to find in one human being. Fortunately, Dana possesses all these credentials and more and was able to join the project as a part-time contractor. Her diligence and expertise in communicating science clearly and accurately to teen readers quickly became a huge boon to the project. And her experience as a sensitivity editor also ensured that all our young readers would feel represented and respected. Furthermore, Dana collaborates thoughtfully, generously, and with good humor, so working with her was an absolute joy for all of us on the team. In short, Dana tops my list of science writers I would happily hire again because I trust that her talents and skills would help me achieve and enhance any project.

I've worked as a scientist, educator, and editor and writer in my jumbled professional life--and have loved every minute of it. I continue to discover the surprising ways two or more of these fields converge in my work and always seek out new opportunities. I'm a natural learner, teacher, thinker, organizer, wordsmith, storyteller, thought partner, and copy polisher. If you're looking for someone who's sharp, dependable, and empathetic, contact me. I'd love to talk with you about your project.
