Services: Editing
Need an experienced copyeditor or proofreader to tackle your next project? I'm an editor of content written for other editors—who can be the pickiest audience out there! I have an eye for detail and consistency that will make your text cleaner, easier to understand, and error-free. Past regular projects include the monthly inflight magazine for Alaska Airlines, Credit Union Magazine, children's book and blog authors, and nonprofit promotional materials. As a graduate of the University of Washington's Editing Certificate Program and years volunteering with the Northwest Editors Guild and Editors Tea Club, I am ready to handle nearly any project. I know Chicago, AP, and various tech styles, and can adapt to or create project style guides unique to your project.

Areas of Expertise
My Method There is nothing worse for an author than getting a draft returned that is full of corrections you don't understand or agree with. I like to maintain open communication with authors and explain why I suggest certain changes. |
