I offer professional editing and proofreading of your work. I work quickly and accurately! I will catch all errors in grammar and spelling, and offer suggestions to improve the clarity and accuracy of your content. As a teacher, I have 10+ years of reading student and scholarly writings. I know how to present different options without compromising or altering the intent of your writing. I am an experienced, bilingual teacher (Spanish) and researcher with scholarly content area knowledge in the following fields: Earth Sciences (Physical Geography, Geology, Oceanography, Natural Resources), Environmental Science, Global Issues, Wildlife Conservation and Extinction, Natural Reserves/Protected Areas, Mountains and Exploration, Ornithology (the study of Birds, especially Picidae--the woodpeckers), and Physical/Regional/Cultural Geography. A long-time resident of the Pacific Northwest, I am also a specialist in Latin America studies. I have traveled extensively from Alaska to Patagonia and can translate documents from English to Spanish or Spanish to English. I worked as a professional mountain guide and outward bound instructor for many years, and know the field of experiential education. I would be glad to edit your articles for print or the web, including public relations, scientific and technical writing, and travel writing. I have taught college courses in Earth Science and Geography.
