Experienced proofreader, copyeditor, and PR professional experienced in scholarly writing for the biological sciences as well as corporate communications
I am a detail-oriented copyeditor, proofreader, and PR professional with 14 years of communications experience. I have successfully produced and edited a wide variety of publications and documents from press kits and marketing materials to scholarly articles. My undergraduate education was in English and Theater, and in my career, I have been a Communications Director for a large arts organization.
I now specialize in the biological sciences. I am a doctoral candidate in Kinesiology, teach undergraduate Anatomy & Physiology for a large university, and participate in the editorial process for an international scholarly journal.
I am qualified to write original work for newsletters, white papers, press releases, and corporate communications. I also have editorial expertise.
In my opinion, one of the most important skills of a great editor is the ability to bring out the best in a client's writing while respecting their unique voice. I take deadlines very seriously and see my role as a support to the writer in fulfilling their assignments successfully and in a timely manner.
I am here to help. Let's work together.
