Hi there! I am an American Native English editor and proofreader whose work has been used in/by some of the world's:
- ✅ Leading book publishers and news publications (Abrams Books, Forbes)
- ✅ High ranking academic journals and institutions (ASCE Library, The US Chamber of Commerce, AAAS)
- ✅ Top businesses, brands, and websites (PetSmart, Netflix Originals, PILOT Inc.)
...and I’m very excited to help bring your own writing to life today!
I provide you with masterful copy + line editing, error-free proofreading, and professional formatting - all on a fast turnaround time. With me, you can be sure you're getting the highest quality English editing on the market.
My editing process is done entirely by hand, combing through each word and every comma to expertly copy edit and transform your writing into the most professional, powerful, and engaging document possible.
What separates great editing from good editing isn't just catching errors, but knowing when to hold back. My job isn't to rewrite your work in my voice; it's to find the strongest version of yours and bring it to the surface. After 500+ projects, I've developed an instinct for exactly where a piece loses momentum, where a sentence is working harder than it needs to, and where a single word change makes a paragraph land the way it was always meant to.
Some words from a few of my happy clients:
⭐ - "Lindsey was EXCELLENT! I would highly recommend for any of your editing needs. Flexible, intelligent, highly skilled and all around a great person to work with!"
⭐ - "Lindsey did great work, my book went #1 in 12 Amazon Bestselling categories! and his finishing touches were a great investment!"
⭐ - "Lindsey is the quintessential editor. I could not recommend him more. Such a great guy to work with, very detailed, and eager to overdeliver. And overdeliver is what he did. You will not be disappointed by the level of skill and expertise he offers. One of the best people I've worked with here on Upwork."
⭐ - "Lindsey is legit. He said he could tackle my problem editing with his xp and he most certainly did. Laid out his initial opinion and about the time it should take him then went to work. Not only was it effective, it was extremely prompt. If I ever need an editor again he will have first dibs. No question."
⭐ - "Always great working with Lindsey. Turnaround time is super quick and the work is high class."
⭐ - "I cannot say enough about Lindsey's ability to elevate my writing. If you want to communicate clearly and concisely, Lindsey is the writer and editor you need. Thank you again, Lindsey! :)"
⭐ - "As always, brilliant work. I can trust Lindsey with any writing project and know it will come back sounding and looking AMAZING!"
Some examples of services I can provide, broken down by category:
ACADEMIC: Editing and proofreading, including paper, dissertation, thesis, essay, and research report revisions. APA 6 and 7, MLA, Harvard, and Chicago Manual of Style formatting are all specialties that I can easily handle!
ADMISSIONS: School and university admissions essay coaching, MBA, job application, resume, and CV editing; personal statements and statements of purpose
AI CONTENT: Editing and bringing a human touch to enhance AI-generated drafts and make them publishing-ready
ARTICLES AND BLOGS: Working with you to find your unique author’s voice and help fine-tune your content to be clear and compelling. I'm deeply familiar with AP Style and Chicago (CMOS) best practices, but I can also quickly interface with custom or in-house style conventions!
BOOKS: Fiction and non-fiction book editing and proofreading; short story, epic novel, or autobiography
BUSINESS: Correspondence (including B2B), marketing material, and product text, as well as corporate websites, internal documents, email campaigns, content and news articles, sales, and newsletters
DEVELOPMENTAL: Assessing content at a high level to help develop ideas, structure, and narrative resonance
GRANT WRITING: Polishing grant documents to be persuasive, professional, and clear
SCIENTIFIC and MEDICAL: Science and medical proofreading, copy editing, and fact-checking
TECHNICAL: Technical editing of internal documentation, manuals, whitepapers, and reports
WEBSITES: Website content editing and proofreading across all types of genres and design styles
- AND MORE (Don't see your project type listed? Reach out - chances are I can help!)
I’m also available on retainer for ongoing or high-priority editing needs.
Ready to get started? Send me a message with a brief description of your project (document type, word count, and any deadlines I should know about) and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. I'd love to take a look!
