    I am a meticulous copy editor with a great memory for in-house style and an obsession with correct hyphen usage. I'm currently a creative writing MFA student looking for side income ("ice cream money," as my dad calls it). Previously, I've been a copy desk chief at a university newspaper and an editorial assistant for an alumni magazine at the University of Minnesota. I've also edited dissertations, written and edited newsletters, and created countless presentations, handbooks, and blog posts in my previous work at a Minneapolis nonprofit. I also have experience teaching creative writing and working with K–12 students, so I would especially love working on anything related to education—but I'm confident I can handle whatever topic you throw at me.
