I am a professor, published author, and journal editor who has helped people produce lucid and compelling writing for over 15 years. As someone with inside knowledge of the process of writing and publishing, I know exactly how to polish a manuscript to bring out your unique voice and contributions. Most importantly, I am a mentor who can guide you through every stage of your writing process. As a teacher, I cultivated the ability to provide feedback that is insightful, constructive, and empathetic. I can coach you at each step, whether this means sharpening your arguments, heightening the emotion of a pivotal moment, or perfecting your text’s overall structure. I have experience in nearly every kind of writing and format, including: • Books • Academic and popular articles • Dissertations and theses • School application essays • Proposals for grants and scholarships • Blog posts I served as book review editor for a major sociology journal, and my own work has garnered awards and appeared in leading discipline journals. Finally, I am experienced in many formatting styles (APA, Harvard, Chicago, MLA, ASA, etc.). Let's work together to bring out the very best in your writing!

I offer proofreading and copyediting services. I specialize in adapting written work to a given style and correcting mechanical errors. I can work within any style guide provided, but I have the most experience with the Associated Press, Chicago, and APA style guides. I have more experience editing academic and business writing, but I am most interested in fiction editing. I'm new to the professional proofreading space, but I am very passionate about my work. I have completed the Knowadays Proofreading certificate course and the ACES/Poynter Editing course, among others. My passion for reading has pushed me to pursue an education in English/Creative Writing and a career in the publishing industry. If you hire me as your editor, you can count on me to communicate and share my progress throughout the editing process.

My PhD in linguistics and over twenty-five years of work experience in the fields of English composition, rhetoric, and ESL have convinced me that the most important skill of good writing is the ability to empathize with one’s readers—to get inside readers’ heads, as it were, and see the text from their perspective. This empathy, combined with a comprehensive knowledge of the English language, meticulous attention to detail, and strong communication skills, has generated consistently positive feedback from students and colleagues throughout my career as a teacher, tutor, and published researcher and writer. I bring this same expertise and reliability to my work as a freelance writer and editor. My academic career has afforded me literally thousands of hours of experience revising, editing, and proofreading student work, experience that translates directly into my freelance activities and has honed my ability to communicate feedback (and negotiate intended meaning) in a precise and efficient manner. Moreover, my commitment to each client is the same, no matter the size or nature of the job: I will complete the task expertly and with close attention to the needs and wishes of the client. I look forward to hearing from you about the goals you have for your particular writing project(s).

Having taught everything from third grade up to college level English, I have seen just about every mistake possible in the English language and provided a solution for it. Academically, my strengths are MLA and APA formatting, understanding complex assignments, building cohesive arguments, and ensuring that the overall flow of a piece is well-honed. My undergraduate work was a Bachelor of Arts in English with a concentration in technical writing and editing. This program allowed me to work with texts from different fields, mostly web-based, to develop strategies to make technical information clear and accessible to all readers.

I'm very bubbly and outgoing. I find my best work to be in the moment, random events that I just capture at the perfect time. I've been through lots of different experiences with different jobs, side jobs, and projects. My teachers would sometimes shake their heads at my ideas, but they'd use my final products as examples for other students. So if you need something done, you can count on me to make it unique and out of the box.
