    I have what may be a very unique set of professional credentials but more about those in a minute. I have a real passion for working directly with authors who have put in the necessary effort to write the best novel possible and are looking for an editor to polish it for them. Together, we might produce a truly great book. That's what I try to do, and I'm very good at my job. If you want a line edit, I will smooth out your sentences wherever necessary to improve story flow, removing any repetition and issues with balance or sentence length. I am naturally very detail oriented, and I will catch every contradiction and dropped detail. And of course, the grammar, punctuation (per the Chicago Manual of Style), and spelling will be flawless. If you have written a romance, mystery, or fantasy, I want to be your new editor. As a former English Writing and Grammar instructor with a master's degree (TESOL), I have more than 6 years experience in teaching those subjects to international students. In addition, I completed the University of Washington's Editing Certification Program in 2020 and have been working as a professional editor ever since. I look forward to working with you! Anne

    I believe that communication and language are the most important tools we have for human connection. I am a fierce advocate for connecting people and facilitating communication for individuals. I began my career as a medical speech-language pathologist exploring the country as a contract travel therapist. I have seamlessly stepped in to fill staffing needs at skilled nursing facilities, inpatient rehabilitation facilities, and acute care hospitals all over the Midwest. Along the way I have learned how to work with diverse teams, adjust to changing operations and protocols, and quickly learn to implement different electronic medical record (EMR) systems. I currently hold a full-time position at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) Passavant Hospital where I evaluate and treat disorders of speech, language, communication, cognitive linguistics, and swallowing. I have a special interest in innovation, and I am learning about the intersection of speech, language, and technology. I believe technology is a gateway to expanding the impact of my work to empower individuals with communication and connection.

    I consider myself a generalist across many disciplines and trades and aim to be a lifelong learner. I have experience as a research assistant, project manager, program evaluator, policy liaison, macro social worker, public servant, and much more. In my work thus far, I've assisted on various research projects with data collection, literature review, project documentation (e.g. deliverables and process evaluation), facilitation of focus groups, clip cutting, and a variety of other tasks that make my a dynamic and adaptable teammate. I'm also experienced with creating information + graphic visualizations including guidebooks, procedural manuals, handouts, and more. I often bring my social work lens to my work, considering how to meet a person or organization where they are at. I consider their comprehensive needs, strengths, and areas for improvement, and feel a strength of mine is synthesizing information and facilitating connections that optimize how the person or organization functions. In a similar vein, I thrive in multidisciplinary environments where information is shared and issues are viewed and resolved comprehensively through collaboration. I feel that the breadth of my experience makes me an adaptable and industrious collaborator. I am growth-minded and always appreciate the opportunity to learn a new skill or build a new relationship. Beyond this, I am constantly seeking new connections and would love to expand my professional network.

    An "out of the box" thinker, I believe strongly in innovation and limitless possibilities in life. These are the major factors that have spurred me to broaden my horizon and scope of knowledge. With a 1st degree in Environmental Management, I sought to diversify my scope of knowledge and delved into the Information technology (I.T) sector focusing on Product Design (UX/UI). An autodidact in this new field of interest, I have honed my skill in the past years through constant practice and tasks completed; kudos to experts in this field that assisted with materials and files that guided me on the path to this achievement. My ability to learn on the job is a skill I pride myself in. This has helped me grow constantly and remain relevant over the years.

After obtaining my B.A. in History I went to grad school for Ancient History, worked for a famous library, the Princeton Review, and Apple, Inc..

    I’m an American ghostwriter from Pennsylvania. Perhaps you’ve got a great idea for a mystery novel — the one you’ve been dreaming of writing since high school. Maybe you’ve realized that the wealth of knowledge that sits atop your shoulders would make for the perfect ebook. After all, who knows your industry better than you do? Alas, writing a book is such a commitment. Who’s got the time? Who’s got the endurance? Who’s got the attention to detail? That’s where I come in. Engaging Content: When the first chapter comes to a close, what keeps you from putting down that book? Engaging content — and lots of it. I write concise, punchy content that keeps them reading. In-Depth Research: Great content is a powerful tool, but it’s relevance to your subject matter is equally important. An overview or outline of your vision is always welcome, but, as a voracious reader who enjoys learning almost as much as writing, I won’t shy away from doing my own research. Communication and Delivery: Even well-formulated and engaging content can’t sell when it isn’t delivered on time. I am a prompt writer and communicator throughout the writing process. Creating great content is a journey and I’m glad to share as much (or as little) as you’d like to see along the way.

I am open to just about any project. -I will help you right those commas, colons, and misspellings! No detail is too small for me to consider.
