Proofreading

Within a month, I proofread and provided feedback for the first edition (2018) of the 700-page adult theology textbook Echoing the Mystery, published by the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist.

Research

I provided in-depth background research and interview prep for the Emmy Award-winning films The Face of Mercy (2016) and Liberating a Continent (2016), both produced by the Knights of Columbus.
