I have a Ph.D. in English (Rhetoric and Composition) and 25 years of experience as an academic editor and writing consultant. I work with publishing academics in a variety of disciplines: from the humanities and both the social and natural sciences (e.g., philosophy, literature, archaeology, art history, engineering, and political science, to name a few).
I also frequently consult with graduate and professional students as they prepare their dissertations and theses for defense and graduate school submission. I offer a full range of dissertation coaching services, from developmental feedback to final polishing and line editing.
As an editor, in recent months, I’ve worked with several new Ph.D.s as they entered the academic job market and crafted curriculum vitae/résumés and application letters matching their own expertise with the needs of the schools advertising open faculty positions.
Highlights: expert in academic editing and proofreading with a focus on dissertations and theses, with expertise in APA and Chicago (Turabian) formats. Doctoral dissertations, theses, and academic articles and books in all stages of development. Formatting and editing; enhancing clarity and coherence; error detection; consistently delivering high-quality results under tight deadlines.
