    I am a PhD-level (@Brandeis, MPP Georgetown, BA Wesleyan) researcher available to write new text and improve your academic writing (i.e., journal articles, papers, dissertations, prospectuses) and applications for higher education (essays, CVs, resumes). Expertise in improving text through developmental editing (evaluating and improving its substantive content and structure), line editing (enhancing language use), and copyediting (the final edit). Bring a high level of attention to detail, appropriate grammar, professional tone, and clarity. Your written material will stand out due to the crisp writing and removing distracting grammar, tense, punctuation, and syntax errors. No CHAT GPT. I read every word. Let my satisfied and repeat Upwork Clients speak about my work: RESEARCH ARTICLE: "The manuscript has substantially profited from his feedback. As usual, communication, availability and adherence were also excellent!" WORK PLAN: "His communication was top-notch, he met all deadlines, and his skills were reasonably strong." DEVELOPMENTAL EDITING: "He provided valuable feedback that greatly improved my manuscript. The communication was excellent throughout; the turnaround time was faster than the initial estimate." JOURNAL ARTICLE: "The best editor I've worked with on Upwork. This is my fifth time working with Rafael. He is extremely detail-oriented, communicative, and prompt. He catches things I did not even notice. He is spectacular at condensing and making sure sentences are succinct. He had to cut down on nearly 10 pages, and he did so very well sharpening my paper without losing the main points." EDIT MANUSCRIPT: "Working with Rafael was superb! I had a very urgent request. Rafael responded very quickly and communicated how much time it would take him and what he would be working on. He not only helped me with cutting the paper, but he also helped with grammatical error." JOURNAL ARTICLE: "Rafael helped me immensely to get through the final phase of a major revision of a journal article. I had an excellent writer, researcher, and expert in the field to guide me through and finalize my article in the best possible way."

    Great technical writing makes your content user friendly and doesn't just inform readers - it spurs them to action. I think outside the box to ensure your technical message connects powerfully with readers - and gets them moving toward your goals. My expertise in environmental science and engineering: - Translating techspeak to reach any audience. For 25 years I've helped scientists and engineers communicate with other tech experts, managers, decision-makers, contractors, interest groups and just plain people. - Government regulations and their impacts. I'm grounded in the ins and outs of government regulations and policies at the local, state and federal levels - and how they affect other governments, businesses, and constituents. - Sustainable energy and development. I'm well-versed in the science and practice of sustainability, including alternative energy sources and technologies, resource conservation, and the impacts of consumption and rapidly developing technology on humans and the planet. I'm highly experienced in creating these kinds of technical content and copy: - project proposals, scopes of work/budgets, and charters - technical reports - white papers - decision documents - web content - blog and social media posts - contracts for implementing actions and providing services - policies and procedures I'm also a crack researcher. Need to know what it is, how it works, or how to get it done in the environmental or governmental arenas? I research incisively and present the results in concise, accessible formats customized for you. I also look out for insights and efficiencies to make your project or business work more effectively, efficiently, and most of all - compellingly. As one client put it "Lee Ann went above and beyond in her work. In researching...she flagged things for us that were fundamental to our company's success."

    I help small-to-medium-sized businesses create website content that engages readers and makes them want to do business with you. The content I write is designed to maximize conversions and help monetize your traffic. My job is to make your promotions worth as much as possible. Below are the services offered: Website Content I have you fill out a comprehensive and thought-provoking questionnaire so that by the time I finish reviewing it; I know exactly why you stand apart from your competitors. Once I understand that, I can write a clear and concise message on every page. Article Writing The difference between article writing and blog posts is really the number of words and the writing's overall tone. In other words, if you need to build trust and credibility on your website, it helps to include several well-researched​ articles about your expertise. This conveys authority and a level of seriousness in the style of writing. Blog Posts While blog posts can be informative (like articles), there’s an overall goal to connect more with your audience. This is a chance to show your personality and sense of humor (or not) and give a snippet of the culture behind your business. Blog posts are more “shareable” than articles and usually are presented in list format, quick tips, etc. Additional Content Services Offered: White Papers Lead Magnets Case Studies Emails Brochures Landing Pages AIO (Artificial Intelligence Optimization)
