I have over five years' experience copy editing and proofreading professionally. Most of my work consists of the following: - Website copy, including SEO content - eBooks - Mobile apps - Marketing funnels - Academic papers - Articles - Resumes/cover letters - Transcripts - School curricula/online courses - White papers - Blogs - Short stories/poems - Letters I've worked with clients from all walks of life, including non-native English speakers. Most of them have great ideas they want to share with the world but lack the writing skills to convey them. I love improving the word choice, sentence structure, and flow of my clients' writing while preserving their unique voices. I make thorough edits instead of simply fixing mistakes. I strengthen my clients' writing by optimizing word choice and sentence structure, organizing the flow of ideas, eliminating redundancy, maintaining a consistent style, and more. I use the "track changes" feature so my clients can see all the adjustments I made to their work and accept or reject them as they see fit. I've been writing all my life, and editing copy since high school when I was a yearbook contributor and editor for my school's newspaper. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and have taken creative writing and journalism courses. I'm familiar with APA, MLA, and Chicago Style, and I often use clients' custom style guides.
