About

Eagle-eyed copyeditor, experienced writer and researcher

If the only thing you hate more than writing your first draft is reading it, dread no more. I'm an accomplished writer and former communications director with extensive experience in copy editing, ghost writing, and polishing. I can help you get your point across while crafting a flowing and engaging read for your reader -- all while keeping your voice and style intact.

My experience includes editing articles and annual publications for NC State University; national conference materials for StartEarly (formerly the Ounce of Prevention Fund); grant proposals, reaccreditation self-studies, and digital and physical communications for a 100-year-old music college; primary research for two well-reviewed biographies; and writing original material for a music book and two photography monographs.

Books, manuscripts, articles, essays, theses, dissertations, white papers -- whether you need a quick proofread, facts checked, additional research, or extensive editing, I will give you professional results with timely turnaround.

Work Terms

I work 7 days a week to accommodate your deadline. I generally work and bill hourly, prorated to 15-minute increments as needed.
