Hi! I'm a professional proofreader, editor, and writer with a Bachelor of Arts in Literatures in English and a concentration in Creative Writing. I'm interested in working with almost any form of writing—fictional manuscripts, nonfictional manuscripts, articles, academic essays and journals, and more. I've been writing for as long as I can remember, and I have a lot of relevant experience through my education and my freelancing.
I've also acted as a Beta reader, proofreader, and editor for published authors, working with manuscripts ranging from ~10k words to ~200k. I have experience with almost every genre, including fantasy, nonfiction, paranormal, romance, contemporary, historical, memoir, self-help, etc. Outside of editing and proofreading manuscripts, I've worked with academic materials—such as articles, journals, and essays—and I've also done social media posts and websites.
In the end, I'm dedicated to assisting other writers with ensuring their work is of the best possible quality, whether that be with grammar and syntax or storytelling elements. I love assisting students and writers of all ages with their progress; I've tutored in English and have graded student work, both K-12 and college-level. I'm familiar with APA, Chicago, AP, and MLA style guides, and I can edit/proofread while adhering to their guidelines.
Thank you for taking an interest in my profile! I hope to work together :)

Hello, I'm Jamie. My experience rests in proofreading, content editing, copy editing, manuscript editing, textbook editing, and book reviewing. My master's degree in linguistics adds another level to my experience regarding cultural studies and communication in audible and written formats.
I love outdoor education and all matters related to homeschooling. I enjoy helping others discover what may be the best way to accomplish their educational goals from a homeschool setting.
Customer service is a natural and enjoyable part of any task that I pursue.
I am prepared to work with The Chicago Manual of Style (CMS), A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations (Turabian), American Psychological Association (APA), Modern Language Association (MLA), The Associated Press (AP), and other styles as requested.
I often work with clients in Microsoft Office, Dropbox, Google Drive, their own websites, and other formats as needed.
Having worked with Upwork for over ten years, I recently stepped away from the platform and am looking forward to experiencing the platform's updates.

Currently a PhD student at Oxford, I am a writer, editor, proofreader, and teacher with over ten years of experience across academic, corporate, and creative spaces. I am an enthusiastic, efficient, and diligent worker with excellent grammar. Writing feels tangible to me; it is the best thing I do.
I hold a Master's (with Distinction) in English Language and Literature from the University of Cape Town and a Bachelor's Degree (Hons) from New York University in Arts and Literatures.
For about six years, I worked as Head Tutor in the English Department at UCT. Here, I became proficient at editing and providing feedback on academic writing at an undergraduate and graduate level.
Since then, as a content writer and copyeditor, I have worked closely with businesses and clients from all over the world, penning reports and articles on an array of subjects, including travel and sustainability, technology, education, and law. Currently, I am the editorial assistant for "Social Dynamics: A Journal of African Studies." I also have experience editing dissertations, creative writing, short essays, and books, and I strongly believe in the value of offering careful and rich feedback.
I speak both French and Italian with working proficiency and can translate from French or Italian to English. With solid SEO knowledge, I am adept at putting the finishing touches on pieces meant for an online audience.
Feel free to reach out if you feel I might be a good fit for your needs or if you have any questions at all.

Are you envisioning something? Let me help to put it into words.
I'm a Portuguese native speaker and a writing expert ready to help you if you need anything Portuguese-related. I'm able to create, analyze or review any kind of text in a structural and aesthetic way. I'm also capable of translating Spanish and English texts faithfully to Portuguese or the other way around.
Here's a recap of my main skills:
» Portuguese copywriting and proofreading (articles, news, speeches, texts, reviews, backlink, and outreach content, product descriptions...)
» Website (mostly Wordpress) content writing in Portuguese
» Translation and transcription from English to Portuguese
» Translation from Spanish to Portuguese
Why me?
When you hire me, you are hiring a resourceful and skillful professional with the desire and commitment to play a part in your success. I'm not the type of guy to produce my work with a one-size-fits-all formula while making the less amount of effort possible. Each project is unique to me and demands its own mindset. I'm a guy that embraces the idea, the spirit, and the purpose of your desire and embodies it into words. Words that will be forming more than a text, they will shape your vision. That's what I do. I shape your vision.
Here's what I know how to do.
Portuguese is my true passion. My university course major was specifically about Portuguese so I had a lot of linguistics subjects such as Lexis, Syntax or Semantics which gave me a greater understanding of the language. As for today, I spend most of my time reading as much as I can and writing just about anything. Politics, geopolitics, sports, and traveling are among my favorite topics and I do frequently write about them.
English is, nonetheless, my second language. I started to have English classes at the early age of 5 and I had several subjects of my course ministered in English, making 15 years of taught English. Nowadays, I read a lot of literature and articles and correspond with a lot of friends and clients in English, let alone the thousands of hours of documentaries and films I watch. I am completely fluent.
As to Spanish, besides having a B2.2 level certified by the University of Lisbon and dominating the grammar and vocabulary perfectly, I read a lot of Spanish books and press and I have been in Spain dozens of times speaking it with locals.
Besides my working side and regarding the human one, you can count on a calm, reasonable, and pleasant person to work with. I will deliver the work you asked for within the time frame we’ve settled and I'm willing to revise the text to suit you the best as many times as you need until it perfectly fits your vision.
I’m really looking forward to working with you!
