Hi, my name is Jón, and I am a Political Scientist and Historian from Iceland. When you hire my services, what you will get is a detail-oriented and reliable professional. I have done freelance work independently for almost five years, translating, writing, proofreading, and editing texts for clients. I have a native/bilingual command of the English language, and I am a stickler for correct grammar and spelling details. My TOEFL IBT score, an academic English language test, is 114/120.

Meticulous editor and proofreader, both in academic research and popular writing. Well-read in my own specialty of finance, economics and banking, I have spent a lot of time in banking archives, assessing 19th century (predominantly British) banking and financial markets. I enjoy the struggles that come with making a text flow, with ensuring that the grammar is assisting its deliverance rather than detracting from it. I'm good at operating and assessing statistical databases and I code a little bit too (in Stata only). - Double-check, proof and edit everything from academic papers and research projects to blog posts. - Three years' experience of professional editing and full-time freelance writing for several different outlets. My work has been featured everywhere from Financial Times to ZeroHedge. Write me a line. I'm looking forward to working with you! /J
