After years of proofreading college papers and reports for my friends, and even more years cringing at dangling prepositions, misspellings and the like, I began seeking employment that would utilize my editing and proofreading skills. I love grammar and enjoy a carefully written document on any topic, so this work is very natural for me.
I have experience in various types of proofreading and editing - for government, business, and academia. Working as an editor of both the school newspaper and literary magazine, I gained experience in layout and design as well as traditional editing. Additionally, as an intern in college, I had the opportunity to write portions of a county comprehensive plan, and then to edit the document in its complete form. I have drafted speeches and correspondence for government officials, and edited academic journal articles, research papers, brochures, and website content. For a time, I even proofed tax forms for the Internal Revenue Service.
If you are looking for someone to catch the most minute of grammatical and/or spelling errors, or if you need someone who can evaluate your overall document for flow and organization, then send your work to me!
As a note, I am an avid crafter, from knitting to decoupage, so if you need someone familiar with that specific terminology, then I am well-suited for the job.
