Robert Gerchalk
My goal is mental health, or general writing and editing from my Bangkok
location. I worked for many years going intake assessments in a psychiatric
and substance abuse hospital near Miami, USA. I also worked as a director
and supervisor, where I wrote and updated policies. Also, I have extensive
experience doing classroom lectures and online instruction at a nursing
college in Miami, USA. Students had limited English skills and courses
included writing instruction. I have MS and BS degrees. Also, I taught hospital
employees from varied backgrounds. As well as my health care career, I am a
licensed contractor-carpenter in Florida, USA, and can write about topics
related to construction, home renovation, and design.
