About

Freelance Proofreader and Copy Editor

I'm a proofreader and copy editor with experience in a variety of fields, from creative and academic proofreading to business and e-commerce copy editing. I have spent more than 15 years participating in writing workshops and conferences and know how to collaborate with clients and writers in making their work as clear and effective as possible.

I received an MFA in creative writing with a concentration in poetry from Bowling Green State University, where I worked as an editor for Mid-American Review, and a BA in English with a creative writing concentration from Marietta College, where I worked as an undergraduate writing consultant.

My creative work has been published in Kestrel, Pine Mountain Sand & Gravel, The Cape Rock, Sweet Tree Review, and elsewhere.
