I’m the friendly, polite person who is always silently correcting everyone’s written and spoken grammar. As a former collegiate student newspaper editor, I have a passion for writing and editing. I’m a health care business development professional by day, assistant writer as a side hustle. I love helping companies build brand or product descriptions, assisting in editing resumes and term papers, and helping creative thinkers get their thoughts efficiently on paper. I also built and wrote my own fitness and healthy living blog for 8 years. The blog has since shut down since I became a working mom, but it hit a noteworthy 124,000 visits/month at its highest volume. I was highlighted as Fitness Magazine's "Bloggers We Love" Feature Blogger in November 2011, and I was a FitFluential Ambassador, Love Grown Foods Blogger, and Healthy Living Blogs Network Member. I'm creative, collaborative, and hardworking. I'd love the opportunity to write, proofread, or copy write for you!

Hello there! I can read through any writing you wish to submit to me and make sure it's the best it can be. I specialize in both copy editing and developmental editing for short (30k or less words) fictional/creative nonfiction stories and academic articles/essays, so if you're looking for someone to make your writing as close to picture-perfect as possible, I'm your gal! I have been editing and proofreading both academic articles and fictional stories/poetry all throughout my educational career. I've recently made the jump to edit in a more professional capacity. Having a clear and concise document for submission to a boss, journal, or even literary magazine is incredibly important, but when the only eyes that see your writing are your own, there tends to be mistakes that slip by undetected. Issues with spelling, flow, and even big picture issues like theme and structure happen to the best of us, but that's where I come in.
