I have completed a degree in English literature and Spanish at a top South African university and have a university certified qualification in editing with four years experience in editing and proofreading documents and texts. I am also able to translate intermediate texts fro Spanish to English and from Afrikaans to English. I have traveled all around the Middle East, Europe and South Africa and have a deep understanding of different cultures, philosophies and people, which I hope to incorporate into my writing, hoping to bring an idiosyncratic and nostalgic undertone to my writing. I am highly organised and can edit short stories, poems, texts up to 3000 words, blog posts and academic essays using Microsoft Word's Track changes, making is very easy for any client to view changes. When editing these texts I aim to provide revisions regarding sentence structure, grammar, punctuation, spelling, readability, consistency, while adding flare and spice to the text.
