Professional Experience

I'm a superior copy editor/proofreader/fact-checker who focuses on minute details as well as the big picture. I'm also a great substantive editor and writer. I'm fast, meticulous, responsive, collaborative, and supportive. Twelve-year career of deadline communications delivery, from print and online publishing to nonprofit fundraising campaigns and academic papers. Expert in delivering complex and creative content in a clear and compelling voice for diverse audiences. I'd love to talk about your editing or writing needs!
