    My goal is to take complex medical and scientific concepts and present them in an easily accessible format. While I can write to other physicians and scientists using that jargon and language, I can also write to parents and patients in a way they can completely understand. I prefer these types of projects: Peer-reviewed Medical/Biomedical Science Journal Ghostwriting/Writing/Editing For-profit Grant Application Writing (SBIR, STTR), Specializing in NIH Applications High-quality, Human-focused, SEO-friendly Medical Content Patient-facing Medicine and Biomedical Science Materials Continuing Medical Education (CME) Content Creation Subject Matter Expert in Neuroscience, Neurology, Psychiatry, and Internal Medicine Scientific Talks and Presentations (PowerPoint) Medical School/Residency/Fellowship Application Consultancy

    When it comes to writing, I believe that words should not simply appear on a screen, rather, a voice should tell a story. Whether it's a blog, creative work, or a research essay, the individual voice must be heard loud and clear. My work is based on a client's needs, structuring my writing according to the perception the brand wants to convey. I am a thorough writer, reworking pieces to avoid repetition, and grammatical errors while focusing on maintaining both tense and voice. Readers should feel engaged and that the work is relatable to their needs. Writing should be centered on a client's voice while focused on a reader's interests. I have spent the last 2.5 years working as a lead editor on multiple travel blogs. I manage anywhere from 5 to 10 writers, editing their content and coaching them individually on how to improve. While many individuals will tell you about their English degree and reasons why you should work with them, I would instead let my words speak for themselves. Core Skills: - Meticulous Editing and Proofreading - Managing writer's - A developed voice - Strong Research skills - WordPress Blog Formatting -SEO

    Hi. I'm back on the site after taking an extended break to prepare to sell my house, which I successfully did! Now I'm back on to help with your editing needs. After 35-plus years as a journalist, most at USA TODAY, for the past six years I was the editor at the nonprofit Tax Foundation in downtown Washington, D.C., transforming the accuracy and style of their publications and donor correspondence and vastly improving the delivery time of the written materials from the economists and analysts. I have my own business of editing/copy editing/proofreading of nonfiction, fiction, document proposals, news releases, etc., anything that needs another set of eyes to review. Much of my work comes from freelance editing for Post Hill Press publishers out of New York City. That's why I don't have as many hours as some who are on the UPWORK platform. I am a native Washingtonian with a keen interest in politics, government, media and sports. I also hold a Master’s degree in Public Affairs Journalism from The American University, where I taught journalism. I am a reliable self-starter, high energy person, innovative thinker and problem solver with the ability to listen, assess and quickly respond and react. I almost always can return your document within a week, and more often than not, in just a few days.
