    I provide editing services from proofreading, copy editing, and line editing to developmental editing and indexing of academic, nonfiction, financial, tax, and legal projects. I also record for Radio Talking Books and record audiobooks for Audible and Librivox. Since 2020 I have edited more than a dozen nonfiction books, three book-length dissertations, more than 50 academic journal articles, numerous master’s theses and other shorter works, and several white papers. As a retired attorney, judge, and business school professor, I've applied my expertise to subjects ranging from an analysis of the UK's system of dual-class shares, to whether the legal definition of genocide should encompass political grounds, to the environmental aspects of fast fashion, and everything in between. I recently edited and indexed a book on the unique problems of employing those with criminal histories, which was published in 2024 by Springer Nature. I have also edited nearly a dozen travel and how-to books for CZYK Publishing, an independent publisher in the United States. I have extensive experience, and particular expertise, in working with clients for whom English is a second (or third) language. I edit in MS Word and return for each project a redline with my suggested edits and explanatory comments and, when appropriate, a clean copy ready for use. I have also edited in Google Docs and in Adobe. I have certificates in editing from the University of Washington and from the University of Chicago, a doctorate in accounting/business/economics from the University of Minnesota, and a law degree from the University of Michigan. I would love to speak with you about how I can help you make your writing clear, concise, and compelling. As a first step, let's schedule an interview to discuss your project!

    I am a freelance blogger with 5 years of experience, but I've been writing in some form or another for most of my life. In college, one of my essays won the Foothills Writers Guild Award for freshmen. As a creative writer and theatre reviewer, I know how important it is to grab the reader's attention from the start and hold it. I've also learned how to research deeply so I can write beyond my experience in an informed way. I specialize in writing across a number specific niches including but not limited to: law, construction, tech, education, mental health, and more. The fields in which my clients work are often full of technical terminology and industry specifics. I write blogs, articles, and web copy about their work with exciting language that both informs and engages their customers; and the research I perform for each piece ensures that it is knowledgeable enough to hold up to the scrutiny of their peers. I am well-versed in SEO, as well as hosting platforms such as Wordpress, Wix, Squarespace, or Shopify.

    I am a former practicing attorney, previously actively licensed in Oregon and Montana. Now on inactive status, I have extensive legal research and writing experience. Throughout my time as a practicing attorney, I have drafted multiple contracts, formed numerous business entities, created agreements for multiple business transactions, written and edited estate planning documents, and researched and assisted in composing real estate transactions. During my time in litigation I performed in the function of a Deputy City Attorney and led the prosecution of hundreds of misdemeanor crimes. Additionally, I practiced in the area of family law in adoption cases, grandparent right cases, complicated divorce cases as well as assisting in providing domestic violence victim assistance through restraining orders and other motions. Early in my career I also drafted many motions in the area of insurance defense law. I also gained experience in many areas of law through the ownership of my own general law practice in a small Montana town. I enjoy research, editing, and writing of any kind. I have an eye for detail, and am very thorough with a strong work ethic. I can provide writing samples, editing samples, and references upon request. I am currently looking to work from home to keep my skills sharp, and to have an outlet for my passion in the legal field, and other studious endeavors. I am hoping for work that is mainly in the capacity of a paralegal or legal assistant, but can provide the added benefit that only a practicing attorney can provide.
