    ⭐️ Beta reader and editor for multiple award-winning and best-selling books ⭐️ Seven years with Microsoft, managing projects and reducing team’s operational errors by over 30% ⭐️ Bachelor of Arts in Project Management with cumulative 4.0 GPA and Summa Cum Laude honors ⭐️ Directly trained 3,000+ professionals on utilizing Microsoft tools to become more productive ⭐️ Certified in Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, and Power Platform After seven years with Microsoft, I made the decision to leave my full-time job to become a stay-at-home mom while offering freelance services. With a background in customer account management, I understand the importance of tailoring support to meet the needs of each individual client and project. My top priority as a freelancer is ensuring that each client walks away with a product that is valuable. My experience spans across: ✅ Proofreading, editing, and beta reading ✅ Content rewriting, tailoring to specified needs ✅ Improving administrative processes ✅ Utilizing Microsoft software to its full potential—including Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Power BI, and Dynamics Testimonials: ✨ "There isn't a word that describes Jenna's commitment to her projects! She went above and beyond for me, walking me through each step, responding promptly, and explaining clearly what needed to happen within each phase of this process. I will absolutely use her again! I will be recommending her to everyone I know (and already have to some). I have no doubt this process was made easy peasy, because of her (navigating upwork as a first time user)!" —Britney B, Upwork client ✨ "Jenna goes the extra mile to understand her clients' unique needs, delivering tailored solutions that exceed expectations." —Amanda H, Microsoft manager ✨ “Jenna is consistently able to demonstrate a passion for the assistance she is able to give and provide a high level of support that I find hard to find anywhere else. She communicates and connects effortlessly with a wide variety of customers and can find solutions using her vast knowledge of support structures, products, and various other avenues. She isn’t afraid to think outside the box and flex her creativity when it comes to solution-based thinking." —Shawn C, Microsoft colleague 💥I believe in the importance of human-crafted content. Projects I accept will be completed by me—never by AI. I'm happy to provide artificial intelligence and plagiarism reports upon request, when applicable. 💥 If you have any questions about my offerings, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to working with you!

    I learned to read at age three, and thus began my love affair with words. I am currently working full-time as a freelance editor/proofreader/writer. I also worked as an editor and then Senior Acquisitions Editor for an indie publisher for two years. I have various hobbies and interests (music, health, outdoor activities, nutrition, natural living), and I am always looking to change things up. I have many years of experience as a hairstylist with specialties in naturally curly hair and organic color. My all-time passion is editing fiction, but I love working on many types of materials—both editing and writing. It is exhilarating to me to be able to take a piece of written work and tweak, polish, and prune it until it flows smoothly. I would love to have a chance to help you with your work!

    I am a college graduate with a BA in Journalism. I have 5 years experience writing for a music magazine and copywriting and ghost writing outside of my degree. I have experience in reporting, researching, editing, and writing. My writing is personable, informative, and descriptive. Previous editors who have worked with me have praised my ability to adapt my writing according to a variety of different styles that change with article type (feature, spotlight, review, news) or with audience. I challenge myself to learn as I write by researching different topics. I have covered interviews with musicians, album reviews, live concert reviews, health, current events, and trending topics. I believe my writing offers a fresh, fun, yet articulate voice that keeps readers interested. That being said, I am interested in trying something new as a writer by branching out to covering multiple topics in journalism but also building my other skillsets. I thrive in music news but won’t limit myself to just that. I’m interested in what the community is doing, current events, art, health, new local activities, and more! I love creative and playwriting. I am open to helping someone with their creative writing projects or ghost writing for them. I also have editing skills and help people edit and revise academic papers, articles, reports, and newsletters. I am an open communicator and prioritize being on the same page with my clients. I always am sure to reach out with any updates and questions during my writing process. I have balanced my writing career while still being a student and working other jobs. This has taught me how to manage my time well so that my projects can be out by deadline.

    Hi, I'm Claire, a content writer and editor with 10 years of experience providing writing and editing services. I've edited and written textbooks for the major players in the educational publishing sector, including Gale, an imprint of Cengage Learning. I'm a graduate of the Helen Zell Writers' Program at the University of Michigan, one of the top graduate creative writing programs in the country. WRITING SERVICES: I write clear copy about complex topics. EDITING SERVICES: My specialty is helping people express themselves clearly and persuasively to their target audience. To that end, I generally provide two types of editing: developmental editing and line editing. -For a developmental edit, I provide feedback on the overall structure, content, and tone of a piece of writing in a detailed letter. -For a line edit, I substantively strengthen the writing at the sentence level while retaining the author's unique voice. I also provide copyediting and proofreading services for small projects. I particularly enjoy editing scholarly papers, textbooks and educational materials, company reports and documents, creative writing (especially poetry), and cover letters and resumes. ** “I hired Claire to edit two different chapters of my dissertation. I wanted to get my scientific messages across clearly and succinctly and needed some guidance. Claire provided a fresh perspective on the messages that came through in my writing and she (very kindly) identified areas where my ideas were not quite clear. Her suggestions for grammar changes and word choices made my chapters stronger. I appreciated Claire's timeliness in giving her feedback, especially since I was working within tight deadlines of my own. Claire made the writing process much more enjoyable and I would recommend her to anyone looking to help shape a scientific manuscript for publication.” ---Gigi Owen, PhD, Assistant Scientist, Climate Assessment for the Southwest (CLIMAS) at the University of Arizona

    Hi, thank you so much for being here! I am a poet and fiction writer with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts with a concentration in Creative Fiction Writing from Arizona State University. I have experience with manuscript line editing and developmental editing outside of Upwork. I enjoy working with fiction manuscripts, poetry manuscripts, short stories, memoirs, and children's books, but I will also work with academic papers. - I will use Microsoft Word Track Changes so that you can see my line edit recommendations and accept or decline them as you see fit. - For developmental edits, I will include a small summary stating my understanding of the written work, outline any problem areas, and provide suggestions on how to develop your written piece. I am new to Upwork, so my rates are competitive. Although my rates are low, I am thorough in my work and communicative to ensure that you have a polished piece that reflects who you are as a writer and provides a clear message for your reader.

    I'm a talented writer and editor looking to hone my skillset even further with a diverse project pool. My writing style is extremely flexible - though I have my own, distinct style, my flexibility allows me to genreshift or match styles as requested to please any client. I have experience in both professional copywriting and creative writing. As a small business owner, I've crafted countless ads, tweets, and Instagram posts to attract people to my services and events. As a blogger, I've written several informative yet engaging informational posts from horoscopes to manifestation to the properties of herbs and how best to utilize them in everday life. As an author, I've written and published countless short stories and poems, both individually and as parts of larger sets. I can do it all - now, let me do it for you!

    I'm an author of twelve books: (both POD and Traditional) including major publishers: Harper Collins, Simon and Schuster, Tyndale, and Sonny Barger Productions Inc. In addition, I've written numerous newspaper and award winning internet pieces, as well as ghost blogs for major restaurants in New York City and Miami. My social media posts have received tens of thousands of likes, comments, and shares --on a purely organic basis -- without the need for sponsoring or boosting tools. Some of the stories I've written have generated television interviews with PBS, The Hallmark Channel, as well as Fox and Friends, and print interviews in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and USA Today. The bottom line: I'm blessed to make a living in a venue that brings me joy.
