From my very first job as a junior cover designer at HarperCollins to writing more than three hundred research-based educational articles for EBSCO and assisting with developing streamlined and consistent content for the Center for Creative Leadership, I have proven myself as a communications specialist. As an illustration major at Moore College of Art and Design, I fancied a long career as a children’s book illustrator. That plan quickly faded as I took up graphic design in NYC and soon moved on to accept a position as an art director for trade book covers in Massachusetts. Since those early days, I have had my hand in nearly every facet of publishing, including production, editorial, design, copy editing, accuracy checking, writing, and proofreading. While I still handle a certain amount of graphic design, most of my work life is focused on proofreading. I've enjoyed more than ten years of working for such publishers as Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Wylie Agency, Harvard Common Press, Jones & Bartlett, Greenleaf Book Group, and the Center for Creative Leadership. Among my many projects, I had the privilege of working on several Best American series including Comics, Food Writing, and Sports Writing. I've also enjoyed working on several Peterson Field Guides, including Birds of the American Northwest and Bird Nests of North America. I work equally on fiction and nonfiction and I've proofread such authors as Robert Stone, Samin Nosrat, Tim Ferriss, Philip K. Dick, Oliver Potzsch, Anya Seton, Salman Rushdie, and literally hundreds of others. I am currently available for freelance or contract work and will consider long-term remote positions. If you are looking for someone who is easy to work with, creative, attentive to detail, and experienced, you've found her!

I am a freelance illustrator, cartoonist, voice actor, and writer who's been doing this professionally for 2 years. I'm looking to expand my revenue and open up to new projects and assignments. I was also inspired to join Upwork through myself, friends and people who gave me the idea to start working, not for a fast food restaurant or gas station, but with doing what I love i.e. drawing and creating. I really hope to meet all the needs of whom ever I have the pleasure of working with, and only aim to impress and provide excellent service, no matter what client I get. P.S. I'm actually male. There was a gender mix up in my first review
