My name is Wayne Egers, and I recently moved from Montreal to Kamloops, British Columbia. I have a Ph.D. in English Literature from McGill University (focus on film theory and communication/cultural studies), M.A. in English Literature from the University of New Brunswick (focus on "coming of age" narratives in Canadian & American fiction and film), and B.A. with first class joint honours in English Literature and Philosophy from the University of New Brunswick.

During the 6 years I worked as a graduate teaching assistant and two years as a writing tutor, I helped students from diverse academic disciplines to improve their communication skills and develop their creative and critical thinking. In addition to academic editing, I also have edited book manuscripts and community profiles, wrote scripts for slide shows and feature films (the film scripts were personal projects), and carried out research for software and internet companies.

Previous to my academic studies, I worked for twelve years as a graphic designer at the University of New Brunswick.
