About

I enjoy proofreading, copy editing, developing graphics, and working on projects. I like creating something useful with my skills.

I have more than 30 years of experience in proofreading and copy editing, and more than 20 years in developing graphics, charts, and tables to accompany the documents I produced.

My proficiency is in U.S. English. I majored in English Lit in college (though I did not graduate) and took a one-year legal secretarial course. I've spent more than 30 years in both the insurance brokerage and healthcare industries responsible for spelling, grammar, punctuation, coordinating information, and some copy editing.

For the last 20 years, I was responsible for developing simple graphics to accompany text, as well as tables, charts and graphs, brochures, mass mailings, and special projects.

Work Terms

My hourly rate is $15, and I'm happy to work as many hours as are needed, especially if the project is a rush.

Just so there's no misunderstanding, my expertise is in U.S. English, not UK English. I like to make that clear because they're really amazingly different, and I don't want to disappoint you.

Just so there's no misunderstanding, my expertise is in US English, not UK English. I like to make that clear because they're amazingly different, and I am not proficient in the nuances of UK English.

I use MS Word 365 primarily, as well as PowerPoint and Excel, and for graphics, I use the Corel Suite.

Please let me know if you would prefer a corrected and finished document, or if you would like the text changes marked with Track Changes.
