    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."

    I’m a writer who has had experience in every area of writing. I do creative writing to non-fiction and research work. This has given me the skills to create a unique writing experience for any piece of writing. The use of figurative language is one of my strongpoints. I enjoy setting up a scene that draws the reader in. Creatively I enjoy cultivating literary situations that the reader can relate to while doing this through the unexpected. My non-fiction work ranges from poetry, memoirs, and essay writing. This form of work looks that the mundane and examines it see how our unique experiences is what bonds us to others. I also use non-fiction to engage with the hidden. My research work is in the liberal arts and social sciences.
