Sharon is the topic editor for botany; previously, she was the botany feature writer for Suite 101 from 2008 to 2011. Botany is a topic which perfectly compliments Sharon's aromatherapy career. Understanding plants and how they "work" is crucial to understanding essential oils in aromatherapy too.

Sharon now writes solely in her topic editor section but in the past has contributed to additional topic areas such as aromatherapy, health, travel, wedding, fashion and business too, by using both personal and professional experience in these areas to write about "what she knows."

Sharon holds a UK graduate degree in Business and Accounting and has diplomas in both reflexology and aromatherapy. Sharon also has over 10 years experience of working in UK government health services. She traveled widely around the world (including Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Europe, Central America, the Caribbean, Canada and the United States) before moving to the United States in 2006; she now lives in northern Arizona.

Sharon's Writing

Sharon has always had a passion to write and has pursued this passion through many different outlets. She has been published in the National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy professional journal, Aromatiques Essentials Ezine, 928 Brides, Livestrong, Yahoo! Shine, Trails Travels, E-how and is a regular writer at the Natural Health Ezine. Sharon also writes the Sedona Aromatherapie Ezine, Aromatherapy Notes. She has guest posted on many ezines, websites and blogs across the web about aromatherapy and plants. Sharon has received 16 Editor Choice Awards for her work with Suite 101.

Sharon has also in the past contracted work with private clients too including those in the travel, aromatherapy and wedding industry; however, she now concentrates predominately on her own projects, in addition to offering a professional aromatherapy writing service to aromatherapy clients, both under her own name and as a ghost writer.

Sharon's Aromatherapy

Sharon founded the aromatherapy business Sedona Aromatherapie in 2007; it was originally a locally orientated business of aromatherapy treatments and products, but is now focused on aromatherapy product development and the development of aromatherapy courses and classes. Sharon has also written two information websites Aromatherapy Glossary and Aromatherapy Library. She serves on the board of the National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy as secretary and is also the Arizona regional director.
