I have proofreading work dating back to 2007 and a keen eye for mistakes. I strive not to let one typo slip past while still being time-efficient. I fully grasp the complex rules of English grammar and yet understand the nuances and importance of dialectal variations, slang, and grammar differences based on the publication being online or in print. I am a native US English speaker. I have accredited proofreading and editing work in book publishing, written list articles published online, and published an informational video about prevalent grammar mistakes. I attribute my skill of noticing typos, grammar mistakes, spelling mistakes, and inconsistencies partly to my love of reading. I grew up with computers and so am familiar with Microsoft and Adobe programs but also am able to learn new programs easily. I have two degrees, one in Anthropology and one in French. I believe knowing a second language helps me further understand my native language. Thank you for reading my profile; I look forward to working with you!EnglishCopywritingError DetectionDevelopmental EditingArticle WritingEditing & ProofreadingCopy EditingBook EditingFrench to English TranslationFrenchProofreading - $25 hourly

I'm a highly motivated, independent worker with experience in art, design, writing, and editing. As a graduate student and an artist, I have to be a jack of all trades - I'm an excellent improviser, planner, and multitasker. As a young person, I might not have the most experience - which is why I make up for it with grit and passion. I am an excellent communicator and writer, as is evidenced by the many people I've helped win money and positions within the arts through careful editing and re-writing of their funding applications. If you need someone to craft a narrative, do some tricky proofreading, or just make sure that your message comes across clearly, I'm your guy! Thanks to my collegiate education in the arts, I am skilled and confident with a variety of design programs, especially Adobe products. My specialties are photo editing and print layout, so if you have products that need to look gorgeous, business cards that need to be memorable, or even a 300-page book with full-color photographs and tricky technical specifications, put me on speed dial! Finally, please know that at the end of the day, I am here for YOU. I will be upfront, responsive, and accountable. Your project is my project, and I care deeply about its success.EnglishArticle WritingGhostwriting2D DesignAdobe PhotoshopWriting CritiqueAdobe InDesignAdobe AcrobatCustom GraphicsApp DesignEditing & ProofreadingBook DesignWritingAcademic WritingProofreading - $12 hourly
