I am meticulous in every aspect of translation, proofreading and editing and guarantee that any projects will be completed in a professional, punctual and thorough manner. I am highly responsive, flexible and committed in the projects I work on, and take pride in building excellent, lasting relationships with my clients, as can be seen from my reviews.

I love to help authors proofread and polish their work, and frequently do book reviews also. I have been co-author of 5 books in the spiritual genre. I am a magazine writer, editor and proofreader.I have two blogs, on books and new products. I write magazine articles about such topics as quirky and historical travel, animals, the psychic world, and unusual museums or destinations.The books I've co-authored have been with a famous psychic/medium/motivational speaker. I have also written and produced radio programs and lectures. I pay great attention to detail regarding grammar, punctuation, sentence structure and spelling. I pride myself on my proofreading and editing skills. I also do book reviews so am exposed frequently to books in their final form or pre-release form, where I often catch mistakes before the finished product goes to print.
