I am a PhD-level researcher, scientist, and engineer with years of experience writing scientific articles, technical papers, and grant proposals. I have written hundreds of academic articles, mostly on STEM topics, and am passionate about transforming cold research data into relatable pieces, making information more digestible to a lay audience. My years of writing experience have equipped me to deliver high-quality work under tight deadlines. Here is a list of what you can expect if you hire me: 1. Systematic workflow Rest assured that the project will be clearly divided into manageable chunks with scheduled updates on work progress, problems encountered, etc. 2. Minimal supervision With years of experience in independent work endeavors, I am used to having minimal supervision without compromising efficient coordination with the rest of the project team. 3. Timely, high-quality output Planning workflows is one of my hobbies, and freelancing, my way of monetizing it. You can opt to micromanage my submission schedule or leave it up to me. Either way, I'll make sure it's stress-free for you. 4. Responsiveness to feedback and concerns As much as I am used to working independently, I love constructive feedback and would appreciate it if you keep them coming! I look forward to working with you!
