I offer expert editing and proofreading services. I hold two First Class M.A. degrees and a B.A. with Honours, as well as a 2018-19 Fellowship with the International Specialised Skills Institute, Australia. Whether your written work encompasses academic articles, university coursework, novels, blogs, website content, process documentation or even social media posts, resumes or cover letters, my wealth of professional experience allows me to ensure your final written product is engaging, polished, and above all, grammatically correct! I focus specifically on grammar, style, structure and clarity, and can provide services encompassing copy-editing, formatting, line-editing, proofreading or developmental editing (usually a combination thereof). My approach is tailored to your preferences, and as a cheerful, professional, highly collaborative editor/proofreader I ensure that your unique voice is maintained throughout the process and that your work speaks to and influences your targeted audience. In real life I am a highly specialised Book & Paper Conservator working for Cambridge University, where I undertake high-level research, conserve cultural materials and work to make Library collections accessible to all. I research, write and edit content for every type of publication imaginable - from instagram captions, public blogs and process documentation through to academic journals, conference presentations and research proposals. In a past professional life I worked in HR/Recruitment for both a Big 4 financial company and a well-known global recruitment consultancy. My experience in these areas allows my editing and proofreading skills to complement my professional experience in assessing recruitment applications, undertaking interviews and tailoring recruitment advertisements, and I welcome resume and cover letter projects!

I also have experience as a prompt engineer and am able to participate in LLM trainings. I can work very well with technical, industrial, medical and business, as well as literary, commercial, artistic and educational content. My qualifications cover an unusually wide range: from the scientific or academic field to the humanistic and social fields. I also offer ASR (Automated Speech Reviewing or Audio Speech Recognition) and TTS (Text-to-Speech) / STT (Speech-to-Text) related services: quality assurance, naturalization, improvement and proofreading of automated translations/transcriptions; and also voice-over recording (neutral Spanish) for podcasts, faceless videos, online courses; language learning apps assesment.
