Hire the Best Editors in Georgia

Hello! I’m the lead editor at Professional Editing Co., where I work closely with PhD students and researchers on dissertations and academic manuscripts that require careful, expert attention. I have extensive experience editing both qualitative and quantitative dissertations and am deeply familiar with the structure and expectations of a traditional five-chapter dissertation. Through my work as a Dissertation Editor for the American College of Education, I developed a nuanced understanding of dissertation requirements from proposal through final submission. I am also comfortable working with non-traditional dissertation formats, including auto-ethnographies and dissertations with creative or hybrid structures. In addition to dissertation work, I provide comprehensive editing for non-fiction manuscripts intended for publication, theses, capstone projects, annotated bibliographies, research papers, and research-informed organizational reports. Across all projects, I prioritize clarity, concision, and cohesion while maintaining the author’s voice and rhythm. APA expertise is a core part of my practice. I edit and format documents to APA 7 standards, including tables of contents, headings, pagination, tables and figures, body text, and reference pages. I also conduct detailed reference audits to ensure accuracy and consistency between in-text citations and reference entries, verify DOIs and hyperlinks, and confirm source details (i.e. author(s), publication date, title, source, and DOI/URL) for completeness and correctness. I take this work seriously, approach each project with care and rigor, and care deeply about my clients’ success.

I am a video editor with a specialty in narrative, vlog, and documentary editing. In addition, I have over ten years of experience with music composing, writing, directing, and graphic design. I have worked with YouTube channels and film producers. If you want an editor who can cut fast and efficiently (less than a month), I am your guy! *Has experience with editing programs: Adobe Premiere Pro (6+ Years), Final Cut Pro X (10+ Years), Avid Media Composer (5+ Years), and DaVinci Resolve (3+ Years). *Master of music composition for over a decade; crafted original tracks and sound design on Logic Pro X (7+ Years). *Responds quickly to messages.

I secure funding and win government contracts for nonprofits, startups, and businesses ready to scale their impact and revenue. Whether you're pursuing competitive grants, responding to complex RFPs, or establishing nonprofit compliance, I transform your capabilities into winning proposals that deliver essential resources and sustainable growth. My Track Record: Over three years, I've secured more than $2.8 million in grant funding and developed proposals for government contracts ranging from $100,000 to $12 million. My clients span energy, healthcare, housing, facility management, public safety, and social services sectors. With 91% Job Success and Top Rated Plus status across 80+ completed projects, I deliver results that matter. What I Do: I craft compelling grant proposals for federal agencies (DOE, NIH, HUD, USDA, SAMHSA), foundations, and corporations. I translate technical innovation and programmatic vision into narratives that align with funder priorities and secure awards. Beyond federal opportunities, I conduct strategic funding research and manage complete application lifecycles from concept through submission. For government contracting, I develop compliance-driven proposals that position you as the contractor of choice. I navigate SAM.gov registration, decode complex RFP/RFQ solicitations, develop technical and management volumes demonstrating capability, create detailed cost proposals, and build comprehensive compliance matrices. My contract experience includes facility management operations worth $11.7 million, digital infrastructure, law enforcement coordination, transportation services, and professional consulting. I also provide complete 501(c)(3) formation services including IRS applications, bylaws development, and state registrations for organizations establishing nonprofit status. What Sets Me Apart: My dual expertise in grant acquisition and government contracting gives you a strategic advantage—I understand how agencies evaluate both programmatic funding and procurement proposals. I bring deep knowledge of federal compliance frameworks including Federal Acquisition Regulation, OMB Uniform Guidance, and agency-specific requirements. This means your proposals meet the technical standards that separate funded projects and awarded contracts from rejected submissions. My Approach: I identify competitive differentiators, anticipate evaluator questions, structure narratives for maximum scoring impact, collaborate to incorporate your expertise, and manage aggressive deadlines without compromising quality. Clients choose me because I deliver proven results, communicate clearly, and understand that behind every application is an organization working to create meaningful change or sustainable growth. Whether you need a grant writer who understands funder priorities, an RFP strategist who can win competitive contracts, or a comprehensive funding consultant who navigates complex opportunities, I bring the technical expertise, strategic insight, and persuasive documentation that transforms organizational capacity into funded programs and awarded contracts.

Copyediting is my passion! My expertise includes line editing, copyediting, and proofreading. I focus on reducing wordiness, improving readability, sharpening clarity, and ensuring accuracy—all while preserving the author’s voice. For over sixteen years, I’ve served as the copy editor and final read for numerous authors across genres—including New York Times bestselling author Dianna Love, who writes romance, YA fantasy, and crime thrillers. With Dianna, I handle the copyediting. Others proofread. Then I conduct the final review to ensure the manuscript is fully refined. For all other authors, I provide two thorough reads—copyediting and final proofreading/finalization—ensuring manuscripts are polished and error‑free. In addition to copyediting and proofreading, I’m a strong writer, which makes me a more intuitive, sharper editor. I’ve worked closely with two first-time authors whose stories needed a sentence-by-sentence overhaul to become editorially sound. That’s one end of the spectrum. By the time we wrap up, my clients are ready to publish. I’ve been fortunate to build a strong rapport with each of them, and I believe excellent communication is key. With a sharp eye for detail and unmatched efficiency, I deliver on time. My knowledge of the Chicago Manual of Style and AP Style, coupled with my bachelor’s degree from Georgia Tech, ensures quality and professionalism. I offer two pricing options, each including TWO COMPLETE READS: a flat per‑word rate or an hourly rate. My standard rates are $0.04–$0.055 per word and $35–$55 per hour. I'm glad to tailor rates to suit your needs. Most people do better by the hour unless the project is highly labor-intensive. My structure provides the best of both worlds: if my hourly total exceeds the flat-rate quote, I’ll split the difference—so you receive the lowest possible rate. This is my process. In the FIRST READ (line editing and copyediting), I resolve about 95 percent of the issues using Word’s Track Changes. I use comments when I have questions or need clarification. After this pass, I’ll send the file to you so you can accept or reject edits and respond to comments. You don’t need to accept every change—just reject the ones you don’t want and reply to any questions. Once I receive the file back, I’ll accept remaining edits and begin the SECOND (usually FINAL) READ (proofreading) with a fresh copy. After that second pass, your document will be polished and error-free, aside from any final refinements. Completion time for TWO COMPLETE READS depends on word count and how quickly you return the FIRST READ. I strive to deliver promptly while respecting your work. I have copyedited and proofread over nineteen novels by New York Times bestselling author Dianna Love. Here’s a partial list of other titles I’ve edited: • Sun Tzu’s Art of War in the Battlefield of Project Management—NYT Bestseller—Puneet Kuthiala • Qualified, So I Am Justified—Dr. Kevin Tyson • The Leadership Code—Devyani Patel • 70 50 10: The Journey to an Entrepreneurial Legacy—Mike Russell and Visionary Writing • From Profiles to Partners—Edward Jones • Ghost Protocol—C.R.

Copyediting is second nature—I help authors shape meaning, one comma at a time.
