I'm a seasoned copy editor/proofreader with over 15 years experience in editing and proofreading various types of documents and publications in American or British English. For more than 10 years I edited and proofread several monthly trade magazines published by Global Sources, the world's largest print and on-line publisher based in Hong Kong and Manila. The job involved substantive editing and proofreading to achieve the highest standards of English in both style and substance. My work experience also includes freelance copy editing for Action Asia, a leading monthly adventure travel magazine, and Hong Kong Jewellery Magazine, both based in Hong Kong and using British English, as well as a yearly office supplies and equipment magazine based in Singapore and Manila.
I strive for ABC (accuracy, brevity and clarity) in all my editing projects using universally accepted style manuals, such as those of AP and Chicago, as well as in-house style guides supplied by clients. I take deadlines seriously, like all professionals do, and never miss one. And like all professional freelancers, I strictly observe a regular work schedule. My rates are competitive and negotiable based on the kind of copy submitted, its length, and the degree of editing/proofreading required. Try me.
