Accomplishment: Maturing our journal from a smaller, lesser known journal to one that is known for the quality of its research publications in the health research community in Southern Africa.

Best: Working with people from the different health disciplines in Southern Africa.

Worst: Not having enough articles available for the next issue.

3 words: Well respected, professional, dedicated

Strangest request: Asking, at submission, to please place their article in the next issue. They were quite surprised that I could not accommodate them and not very happy when they learned about peer review.

If not editor?: Freelance writer or counselor

Relax?: I have a 16 month old toddler — I don’t relax. If I get a chance, I read books on every topic possible.
