I am experienced in writing the following types of content: - Blog posts - Articles - Guest posts - Email copy - Website copy - Ad/sales copy - E-books - Product descriptions - Social media posts My skills include keyword research, SEO/ASO, and working with AI writing tools. I take pride in my ability to meet deadlines and incorporate feedback in my work. I strive to deliver the best results in a timely manner. My goal is to craft engaging copy that will help you connect with your audience. Please reach out to me if you'd like to discuss the needs of your business and how I can fulfill them!

For the last decade, I've provided editorial support and coaching to authors, publications, and businesses for nonfiction and fiction books, news, essays, manuals, and newsletters. My editorial portfolio includes over 60 books and 350 articles. While I work directly with authors, my contracts include the Department of State and Indigo River Publishing, a distributor of Simon & Schuster.​​​ I offer a complimentary 15-minute Zoom (before beginning a contract) if your project seems like a good fit. I have a particular hankering for line edits, but I enjoy every stage of the editorial process, from coaching and developmental work to the final proofreading. I am not interested in editing AI writing. If you have generated your content through an LLM and have not taken the time to "humanize" it into your voice, please find a different editor. The majority of my experience lies in nonfiction—a well-written memoir is my bread and butter; historical fiction takes a close second. I hold a master's in 'Journalism and Media Innovation' from Emerson College and a bachelor's from UC Berkeley in 'Health, Technology, and Modernity.' I have the Poynter: ACES Intermediate Certificate in Editing and am a member of several professional associations, including ACES: Society of Editors, The Association of LGBTQ+ Journalists, and Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE).
