Speaker Bio

Christa Bedwin BEd, BSc (Chemistry), CYT

 

How I got this way: I started as a chemist and chemistry teacher and accidentally got a job as an editor for a Chemistry textbook in 1999 with McGraw-Hill Ryerson in Toronto, where I learned a tonne from an excellent old-school publishing team. After a spell in Calgary’s Downtown Oil Patch scene, I became a lead technical editor at Golder Associates (9000 international associates was a fun and wonderful family to belong to!).

The senior Engineering & Environmental Science people asked me to teach their groups and employees how to write better, and told me exactly what they needed. My texts & courses are based on their experienced advice about consulting industry realities, loads of lessons from other people on my path, and 25 years+ of international experience.
