I’m very happy to announce that another great writer has joined the Women On Business team of contributors.  Cheryl Santa Maria brings an out-of-the-box perspective to business and work-home life issues that I know will add a lot to the Women On Business community.  Please join me in welcoming Cheryl, and please take a moment to learn more about her below.

About Cheryl Santa Maria

Cheryl Santa Maria is a freelance writer from Toronto.  Her work can be found all over the web – from Quietcolor.com, to FeministReview.com, to her own blog. 

After graduating from Brock University with a film and communications degree, Cheryl spent two years working in television, and then set her sites on the corporate world.

After spending three years as a legal assistant, Cheryl learned a thing or two about business.  These experiences have given her a greater insight into the ways of the world and have served as inspiration for her writing.

Her areas of interest are (Canadian) politics, society, business and finance and popular culture, but always from a feminist perspective.  She rejects the common notion that women must be and act a certain way – both professionally and personally.  Through her writing, Cheryl has made it her mission to debunk the societal myths that surround both men and women and attempts to offer “out of the box” solutions to balancing work and life.
