I am the author of fourteen scholarly dictionaries in multiple areas of expertise, including psychology and psychiatry, law, electrical and computer engineering, chemistry, and business. My publishers have included Wiley, Wolters Kluwer, Routledge, Elsevier, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, and these dictionaries provide over 1,000,000 combined entries.

I am also the holder of what is probably the first doctorate (PhD – Lexicography) in bias-free and inclusive expression, and am a specialist in communication reflecting respect, regard, awareness, equity, and inclusiveness. This is an indispensable part of taking equity, the embracing of diversity, and true inclusiveness to the next level.

Since language, culture, and society are inextricably intertwined, if a language is not inclusive, then how could the society that uses it be? Not using othering and oppressive language promotes not thinking in such terms, which in turn translates into not acting this way. As more and more people express themselves in an unbiased and inclusive manner, others are inspired to do so as well. We all benefit through living in a safer, more inviting, hopefully even nurturing environment, where respect, tolerance, and consideration are the foundation of all interactions.

I provide consulting, proofing, and editing services for those striving to communicate in a manner that reflects respect, regard, awareness, equity, and inclusiveness.

I also provide high-level translations between English and Spanish, and Spanish to English.
