Professional editing services designed to deliver a clear message, error-free documents, and clear communication that represents your business to the highest degree of professionalism. What I Do: • I specialize in editing technical and academic documents to the highest level of professional writing. • I help businesses and individuals win opportunities, achieve support, and reach their ambitions with written pieces that are clear, concise, and have flow. Who I Help: • I help tech companies, startups, and academics ensure that their message shines through with clarity and persuasiveness. • I understand that every word counts. I help entrepreneurs, innovators, and thought leaders communicate complex concepts with ease. ----- The best writing is transparent; it does not draw attention to itself but instead helps the reader engage with the ideas and encourages them to continue reading. Besides editing, I am also a professional musician. My musical training and experience help me to understand the importance of rhythm to both music and written language. Musical lines use flow and rhythm to engage the listener and pull them along to the end. Sentences and paragraphs work the same way; the rhythm and flow lead the reader through the sentence, slowing on important points and moving forward to the next phrase. I have extensive experience as an educator, scholar, and academic administrator and have written a book, scholarly papers, grant proposals, curriculum design, instructional materials, and technical guides. I have served as a manuscript reviewer for several publishers, including Prentice Hall and Oxford University Press. I have been teaching writing at the university level for 21 years. I have also guided many students through research papers, theses, and graduate school applications. My students have been accepted into graduate programs at Harvard, UCLA, University of Chicago, Columbia, University of Michigan, and others. Continuing and long-term clients include: • SRI International (Stanford Research Institute) • Valiantys • AvidThink • James Lange, best-selling author and financial advisor • tech firms, management and technology consultants, professors, Ph.D. students, op-ed authors, websites, non-profit organizations, etc. More testimonials from Upwork Clients: "I've tried many different freelancers to edit/proofread my writing, and Robert, by far, is the best one."

As an adopted kid from Colombia, my parents were nothing short of a blessing. Growing up in New York City, my parents chose to enroll me in an Italian-American school where I would learn Italian, as well as develop my English skills. My dad, as a Spanish immigrant, taught me Spanish at home, which led me to being fluent in three languages at a relatively young age. My parents always saw great value in the exploration of the many cultures, and sought to promote experential wisdom over received wisdom. As such, my parents placed a large emphasis on traveling. I spend most summers in Spain, but have enjoyed the privilege of visiting Italy and France during many of my younger years. This larger-than-life influence encourages me to study abroad in Copenhagen and Stockholm this summer, as I seek to explore the cultural intricacies that both countries possess. As I learned several languages, I concurrently began developing a passion for linguistics. This curiosity, coupled with my interestAcademic Editing
