Basic Credentials: I have worked extensively writing academic papers at Bachelor's degree level, and I have 10 months' experience editing and composing online copy for a web software company which specializes in educational software. I keep my language and composition skills in shape by regularly blogging on eHow and other networking sites, by editing short stories for my husband, who is a published author, and by reading a wide variety of literary works and nonfiction.
Education: I have a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the University of Kansas, giving me some specialized knowledge of the IT and software development fields. I took two semesters of German in the 2000-2001 school year in preparation for a German major before switching my major to Computer Science. This could be useful if you require an editor with limited knowledge of the German language or alphabet.
Other specialized knowledge: I have several hobbies which might be helpful in more specialized areas. I am a fiddler, and know basic music theory terminology, and how to read music. I also have experience working at a very detailed level with HTML code, both in a work environment and as a hobby.
Careful editing: Most of all, I pride myself on my attention to detail and on my ability to spot and correct every error in a manuscript, document, or web page.
