Reshmi Kutty’s Summary
I've worked as a writer for the last 19 years, and now run a small editorial services business -- Cursive Communications Inc. I've held web writing roles in the UK, USA and Canada. As a freelancer for magazines, newspapers and new media projects, my client list spans from NGOs to celebrity weeklies to financial institutions and the Government of Canada. The Tribune Corporation launched my graduate school joint-thesis magazine in September 2005.
