About me

Occupation Proofreader/Copyeditor
Introduction I am a freelance copyeditor and proofreader. There is not much in life, outside my incredible family, that brings me greater pride than helping others to make the most of their writing. Holding degrees in English and Secondary Education, I have been a freelance proofreader and copyeditor for the past ten years. I have experience with many different types of text including children's books, poetry, fiction, educational materials, business forms and manuals, technical manuals and guides, grant proposals, school and job applications, and various educational and marketing materials written by non-native English speakers. I work closely with authors to develop their materials in a clear and consistent manner, and of course, correct grammar, punctuation, structure, spelling, wordiness, and so on. In addition, I am also familiar with HTML and will verify content on your websites, including links, are in working order and a lovely format. While I will bring new life to your works, I strive to do so while maintaining your voice and sense of style. Many of my clients are return customers for a reason. To many people this is a job. For me this is a passion.
