New Content Released on my CV — June 2024

Happy Summer Everyone – as the seasons change from Tulips to Roses, let’s take the time to really smell all the flowers.

For those interested, I’ve again updated my main page where all versions of my CV are available here

I wouldn’t normally update the CV more frequently than once every six months or so but the last couple of months have been a whirlwind, so I’ve added in the news about a number of initiatives, including the CAMHL manuscript and proofs delivery, awaiting print publication of this stunning book in August – just two months away now.

I’ve also updated information about the YouTube channel programs for WiCCD I’ve been fortunate enough to participate in, one of which – our episode on Experts – has gone “viral” by WiCCD standards – headed toward 750 views in just over two weeks thus far and rising!

We have also just tendered first proof approval on the Special 20th Anniversary Edition of the renowned CCB Guide! What a beauty – quite the substantial volume now nearing 800 pages…

It’s been a spectacularly busy time, but only in a good way professionally so I am getting ready to take a bit of personal time before the fall hits hard again with teaching and publishing responsibilities. Making the most of the occasional quieter moments. Next professional update will not come before September!

In the meantime, I hope everyone has a restful and enjoyable summer.
