    Hello! I’m a business writer/editor (PhD) and graphic designer with 10+ years of experience writing and designing high-impact client deliverables in many industries. I work with consultants and small businesses to polish and elevate all types of assets, from strategic reports to proposals and everything in between. 🔍 Writing & Editing | ✨ Design & Typesetting Most clients come to me for two things: ▫️Document design that looks polished, clean, and professional. ▫️Writing and editing that clarifies complex ideas, or if the work just needs a second set of eyes. I combine my high-level business and technical writing expertise with my knack for stunning editorial design (I’m a two-for-one, hard to find elsewhere) so you can not only deliver that “wow factor” to your clients, but also increase your credibility and look more professional. No templates. I create clean, custom layouts that match your brand and style. Check out my portfolio. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Chelsea was phenomenal to work with. She delivered a high-quality capability statement that exceeded all expectations. Her communication was clear, professional, and timely throughout the entire process. She was fast, but in the best way possible, efficient without ever sacrificing accuracy or quality. What really stood out was her precision and attention to detail. She understood exactly what I needed, took initiative, and nailed the tone and formatting perfectly. I'm truly impressed with the final product and incredibly grateful for her work. Do not hesitate one bit to hire Chelsea. She’s top-tier talent and a true subject matter expert!!!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Chelsea was invaluable in helping me finalize my content and shape it into a very professional written report and presentation. My clients complimented me on the finished product and it was 100% attributable to Chelsea. I highly recommend her!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "As with each deliverable she produces, she does a professional job. Thorough, responsive, creative, offers content input and recommendations, and works well with our multi-layered team and multi-layers of edits. Thank you, Chelsea!" What I Work On: 📋 Strategy & Client Reports 📄 Capability Statements 📙 White Papers 📊 Market Research Summaries 📅 Quarterly / Annual Reports 💰 RFPs, RFIs, Grant Proposals 📕 Technical & Instructional Manuals 📈 Branded Business Documents 🥇 Presentations & Pitch Decks 📙 Employee Manuals 📝 Research Manuscripts & Academic Articles More About Me: I’m an experienced business and technical writer who specializes in client-facing deliverables like strategy reports, capability statements, and proposals. I bring a research-driven approach and sharp attention to detail from my academic background; I've published five first-author manuscripts, contributed to textbooks, and written formal course guides and a 100-page dissertation. After earning my PhD, I worked at NASA as a lead scientist and technical writer. Eventually, I pivoted from federal work to business writing, where I now partner with consultants and teams across industries to help them communicate clearly, professionally, and persuasively (while looking good too). Give me any topic and I’ll get up to speed fast and deliver content that’s both insightful and well-structured. I can match your writing style too. My document designs speak for themselves (take a look at my portfolio). I tailor everything to your business, your vision, and your brand. High-resolution stock photography and graphic elements are always included. I specialize in text-heavy documents, so send me that 60-page strategic report and I’ll turn it into something you’ll love. WHY TRUST ME? ------------------------------------------ ▫️ Experienced & Published: PhD, former NASA scientist, 5+ first-author academic papers, textbook chapters, and countless reports. ▫️I have a strong track record of happy, returning clients and five-star reviews! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ▫️Communication is important to me. I'm responsive, reliable, and I get things done. ▫️Consultant-Friendly: I understand how fast-paced and high-stakes your work is, and I deliver accordingly. ▫️I’m passionate. I love learning about what my clients do and I find it fulfilling, whether it be through helping someone keep up with their workload or creating a deliverable they feel excited to hand off to their clients. I specialize in making you (and your documents) look polished, credible, and impressive. If you need help getting a deliverable over the finish line, I’m here to help. Please reach out if you have questions about my work or want to chat further. Let’s see if I can add value to your project. -Chelsea

    COPY EDITING, LINE EDITING, PROOFREADING I'm a skilled, experienced editor, and I'd love to help you polish your writing. I've spent most of my work life editing hundreds of fiction and nonfiction titles for publishing houses. My MVP as an editor is accurate and engaging content that removes distractions and makes it easier for readers to enjoy the story you're telling. Beyond that, I treat authors with kindness and respect. —Proofread: This focuses on punctuation and typos but also does things that spell-checks don't catch, such as adding missing words and making sure you have the right word (e.g., "past" versus "passed"). —Copy edit: All of the above, plus editing for repetition, clarity, and flow. This is the last edit before typesetting. —Line edit: This edit improves sentence and paragraph structure, removes repetition, and queries inconsistencies or murkiness in text, events, and characters. It is a heavier edit and focuses less on typos. Most recently, I've edited cozy mysteries and romance (including romantasy) for Berkley Books, such as "Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail" by Ashley Herring Blake, "The League of Gentlewoman Witches" by India Holton, and "Plus One for Murder" by Laura Bradford. On Reedsy, my clients included C.B. Wilson (Barkview Mysteries) and Iris March ("The Broken Bridge: A Succulent Sleuth Cozy Mystery"). Back in the day, I edited literary fiction for Counterpoint and nonfiction for Perseus Books/Hachette and University Press of Kansas. I've worked on memoirs (including travel) for several publishers as well. I enjoy the opportunities editing provides to help writers while learning new subjects. SUSTAINABILITY HABITS I can teach you how to recycle, compost, and avoid plastic on a regular basis. If you'd like to drive less and take transit more, I can find the best routes for you and explain how to stay safe on transit. If you want your yard to produce more food, I can design a fruit tree guild. If you want more wildlife in your yard, I can recommend plants for a pollinator guild. Currently, I'm deepening my education in food forestry, community gardening, and permaculture.

    Why a human author instead of A.I. generated content? I'm a former UC Berkeley artificial intelligence prompt designer; I know that while A.I. is a tool, it's far from a master wordsmith in the wrong hands. We know it when we see it: it’s formulaic, uncanny, and deeply unoriginal. And you don't want generic copy, you want a talented architect who builds and narrates innovative, crisp, and vivid creative voice, something only a human designer can deliver! As a literary storyteller and narrative strategist, I possess mastery over language that commands clarity and drama across genres. Be it strictly compelling business or lyrical prose, sweeping sagas or personal voice, I write words that audiences recognize. After writing a winning six-figure deal small business pitch and resumes securing federal jobs and academic grants, I'm ready to be your commercial voice, story, and identity architect! OFFERINGS 🧠 Business & Branding – Pitches, decks, naming, custom brand voice ✍️ Career & Resume Writing – Federal resumes, cover letters, grants 💌 Personal Writing – Wedding vows, love letters, baby names 📝 Ghostwriting & Custom Projects – Poetry, stories, and more ✅ TESTIMONIALS: "Remarkable work and truly beautiful prose, as always--vividly descriptive, immersive, and at times hypnotic." "Excellent analysis, Zaria. Your observations are critical and insightful. It’s tricky to talk about complex and sensitive subject matters, such as racial discrimination & identity. You constructively engaged with the subject, the analysis was excellent and displayed a command of a concept that even seasoned scholars can struggle with—very well done—this is outstanding work!" "Wow. Great passion in this work. Critical, complex, I love your work and the way that you write... almost poetic." "Good job contextualizing your topic and keeping the audience engaged. Your content is relevant, and your presentation style is easy to follow. Your presentation effectively commands attention and you present critical and complex subject matters carefully with conviction and compassion." "Nice work, your great descriptive writing really illustrates a cross section of what each space feels like and the kinds of people there, as well as their unique, meaningful and material differences.” "Excellent work. You demonstrate in-depth understanding of the subject, presenting, and citing information logically. You can talk freely and confidently about subjects while maintaining an objective tone. Engaging with the content, it's clear you have a reservoir of knowledge across a range of topics."
