I'm a biomedical engineer with a passion for reading. As a PhD fellow, a main responsibility of mine is reading, editing, and presenting; leading to me having increased stamina for reading aloud with no mistakes. I am also fluent in both English and Spanish. 1) Due to teaching and volunteer experience, I can manipulate my voice easily to sound another age/ gender/ nationality/ emotion. 2) Due to technical experience, I can edit my own audio I have recently completed my first narration, "The Gone Side of the Fence", written by Tom Colburn.

Hello! I'm Mike — My superpowers: Copy and line editing. Proofreading. Writing copy. I pay attention to the small details — I have a knack for spotting the miscue that nobody else spots. I can transform complex ideas into clear, elegant language. See what my clients have to say: "Michael is a great editor. He communicated well with me and finished the work quickly. I paid him more than we had agreed on initially because I could see the value he brought to the project. I highly recommend him." – Christine F. "Michael provided excellent help with my project — proofreading and copy editing an academic document. I would certainly work with him again for projects that required proofreading or formatting. He displayed a keen eye for detail." – Ewan K. "Fast, detailed, and reliable. Michael really helped us out and we'll be working with him again." – Sam S. My background: I bring decades of experience in writing and writing instruction, proofreading, editing, and publishing books, stories, large/small writing projects, speeches, presentations, research arguments, blogs, poems, personal narratives, and essays. (I also support the Oxford comma but will humbly bend to your wishes if you do not!) What I can do: 1) Copy editing and proofreading: I have an eagle eye for spotting any kind of error. These might include grammar infractions, verb tense agreement, punctuation, spelling, typos, regionalization (i.e. British/Canadian stylization), capitalization, homonym errors, sentence structure...you name it. I will spot it so we can fix it. I get a thrill when I find the tiny things that most people miss—that odd extra space, lost period, or missing quotation marks. 2) Line editing: I'll help you rework and rephrase complex ideas into simple, elegant, clear sentences. I have an exceptional ear for tone and voice and can preserve your unique style while sharpening and polishing your prose. Line editing is usually performed ahead of the copy editing. I am able to do line and copy editing simultaneously, but depending on the scope and needs of your writing project, it may take longer. 3) Academic research, proofreading/editing: I have an academic background and am adept at helping academics and researchers with academic journal submissions, proofing copy, formatting citations, and adhering to any unique style guides and submission requirements. 4) Developmental editing: I can do "big picture" collaboration and offer feedback for memoir, nonfiction, academic research, literary fiction, poetry, others within my range of expertise and comfort. Extras: I bring over two decades of experience as a master English teacher in American private and public schools. So, I always bring honesty, dependability, flexibility, teachability, and a desire to jump in and learn new things. If I don't know about a topic, I will research and read until I do. I bring tremendous value as a team person and flexible, creative collaborator who can improvise and pivot on a dime to deliver results ahead of your deadline. I have exceedingly high standards for my clients' end products.

My experience rests in content editing, copy editing, proofreading, writing, and book reviewing. I have attained a graduate degree in linguistics. This adds another level to my experience regarding translation, cultural studies, and communication in audible and written formats. Several of the positions that I have held required a high level of customer service. This is a natural and enjoyable part of any task that I pursue. I wish to extend my editing, proofreading, and communication skills for the purpose of helping others achieve their goals. I am prepared to work with The Chicago Manual of Style (CMS), A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations (Turabian), American Psychological Association (APA), Modern Language Association (MLA), The Associated Press (AP), and other styles as requested. I often work with clients in Microsoft Office, Dropbox, Google Drive, their own websites, and other formats as needed. I love outdoor education and all matters related to homeschooling. I enjoy helping others discover what may be the best way to accomplish their educational goals from a homeschool setting.
