Hi there! My name is Audrey, and I am an SNHU graduate with a bachelor's degree in creative writing. I have provided line editing, beta reading, and light proofreading for years and have experience all across the board. I have worked in fiction and nonfiction. YA and adult fantasy, horror, romance, sci-fi, suspense, thriller- pretty much all of the genres. There are a lot of nonfiction projects that I have done as well- cookbooks, field guides, psychology, wine lore, etc. If you write it, I will read it and help polish it to a shine.

I help businesses and agencies create, refine, and publish polished, on-brand content. With 8 years of experience in writing, editing, and content marketing, I've supported multiple brands simultaneously across social media, blogs, and other digital marketing materials. My work spans proofreading, copy editing, content quality assurance, social media review, editorial planning, and caption writing. I'm often the final set of eyes before content goes live—reviewing grammar, formatting, links, dates, brand voice, tags, and publishing details to ensure everything is accurate, consistent, and ready to perform. Known for my attention to detail, organization, and reliability, I enjoy helping teams maintain high content standards while keeping projects moving smoothly. Whether I'm reviewing a content calendar, editing a blog post, planning content, or refining social media posts, my goal is always the same: to make sure every piece of content is clear, engaging, and ready to publish with confidence.

Hi, I'm from Ireland, a native English speaker and living in Thailand. (I prefer a fixed fee rate instead of the hourly rate - please send me a message so we can chat about it.) My passion for English language, in particular proofreading, editing, copywriting, and researching, started at a BBC radio station in England where I worked. Later, I was a teacher of English as a Foreign Language in Thai government primary and high schools, creating lesson plans, researching, writing stories, correcting essays, and creating games. I also taught adults, and I have an advanced understanding of grammar. I've also worked part-time as a proofreader for a monthly magazine. People instantly notice mistakes in written documents, and it can even affect your reputation as a business. Save your inspiration for the writing, and let me help make it outstanding. I approach developmental editing, copyediting, and proofreading with absolute precision, a refined (human) judgment, and a human perspective. I also work with your readers’ perspectives in mind. I will work to the level your project requires. Of course I will take care of all your commas, exclamations, etc., and make sure your writing makes sense. I will edit all sentences for clarity. I can follow the Chicago Manual of Style and APA, or your own in-house style, including formatting your citations in either CMS or APA. I will verify sources and find any missing info with reliable reference research. I’m not a lover of AI, but if you’ve used it to create your book, I can help “clean” it up. You know, delete the duplications, fix the bad grammar and boringness of many sentences, etc., and give your manuscript your voice instead of the boring AI voice. Services I offer That AI Cannot • I will check all sources are credible, use judgment, and research anything with up-to-date and exhaustive, relevant info. • I can distinguish between fake news, mistakes, unfounded opinions, duplication, and sense. • I will double-check something that just doesn’t look right.

You will get: * a high-quality document free of grammatical and spelling errors * a complete record of all alterations made, ready for you to accept or reject * suggestions for enhancing words or phrases to suit your readers * suggestions for enhancing your document flow However small or large, I'm happy to help make your project flawless.

I am a freelance writer and English tutor from Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. I was previously working at the admissions and study abroad department at Hawaii Pacific University and had worked in multiple teaching assistant positions at the high school level. I am currently pursuing a PhD in International Area Cooperation at Pusan National University in Busan, South Korea. I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in International Studies and Master's Degree in Diplomacy & Military Studies. I studied abroad in Morocco at AMIDEAST Agdal; and at both Soonchunhyang University and Sogang University in South Korea. I recently also attained my TESOL Certification through UNI-Prep Institute. I wrote an op-ed piece on North Korea for the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. I was also an article writer for I Heart Korea (an online journal focusing on Hallyu (the Korean Wave) - culture, music, arts, and travel pieces) and Pangyao Magazine (a Hong Kong-based publication for overseas foreign workers (OFWs)). Some of my other writing experiences include - writing a short article for my university newspaper, the Kalamalama; several study abroad blogs; and several newsletters I published when I use to work in my university's International Admissions department. I also wrote a dissertation on "External and Internal Factors of Inter-Korean Relations in the 1970s and 2010s" and co-edited theses on "The Effectiveness of International Organizations in the Resolution of Inter-Ethnic Tensions: The Case of Kyrgyzstan" and "Strategic Studies of China’s Oceanic Expansion through the Belt and Road Initiative: Comprehensive Perspectives, Complexible Reasons and Challengeable Purposes". I had also helped edit a few chapters on a book on North Korean Policy. On the English tutoring side, I was formerly an exchange student for a year-long program at Soonchunhyang University in Asan, South Korea and had done conversational exchanges with ten Korean students a semester as part of a cultural internship. And in the summer, I worked as an English Camp Counselor at Soonchunhyang. I worked 3+ years in both Hawaii and South Korea as a teacher in many different academies, camps, and schools. My interests include traveling, writing, reading, hiking, watching movies, learning languages, and political debate/discussion. I am a dependable and very friendly, down-to-earth kinda guy. I am patient, and understanding as a teacher needs to be whether this will be in a group setting or through one-on-one tutoring. I am very flexible with my schedule and can work from home; if the job requires travel, then I can do so as well (depending on location).
