When you think of textbooks, the first thing in your mind is probably not the images embedded within. However, though the text is important, those visuals can be just as vital to the learning process, and not just for those who consider themselves “visual learners.” But why are images so important?

An avid reader and lifelong learner, I’ve always appreciated the artistry and power of words. With a background in editing, publishing, and linguistics, I’ve loved working for MyEducator—it’s a continual learning process with opportunities to study subjects I’ve never studied before and meet extraordinary professionals I wouldn’t have met otherwise.

Aspen Stander Moore

I was drawn to editing to help authors bring out the best in their writing, and I’m now MyEducator’s content team lead. I have a passion for learning and supporting others in their quest to learn—which is what makes working at MyEducator so rewarding!

Sarah Jensen

I love to help people communicate their ideas clearly. My education background in English linguistics and editing led me to MyEducator, where I’ve been lucky enough to help numerous authors and instructors do just that! At the same time, I get to learn new things every day from the content I work with. I love MyEducator!

Kjanela Fawcett

I’ve loved the written language for as long as I can remember. That love led me first to editing and from there to MyEducator. There’s something uniquely amazing about learning something new nearly every day; that’s what happens when you spend your time editing textbooks!

Amy Guan

I was that kid who picked a profession in third grade and stuck with it. You may call that unimaginative, but I prefer to call it dedication. Reading, editing, and learning have always been my passions, and at MyEducator, I get to do all three every day. I love working with authors to perfect their content while getting crash courses on subjects ranging from marketing to database management.

Holly Adams

My name is Holly Adams and I studied editing at BYU. I am always ready to tell anyone about the different types of dashes and where a comma should be placed, but I still have to double-check that I spelled “receipt” correctly. I love working with MyEducator!

Garth Talbot

Editing and writing at MyEducator offers me a unique opportunity to use my skills and experience. My editing focus is on graduate and undergraduate business education. Being an international consultant and a published author, I love contributing to the intersection of writing and business education content that MyEducator provides. Working with authors and with the blog is a wonderful experience.
