Business editing and proofreading

Business editing

I copyedit and proofread business reports and data-heavy documents for nonprofit and for-profit organizations.

How I work

If you hire me to edit or proofread business documents, I will remove the obstacles between your message and the reader and make the document fit for purpose.

I’m in favor of light editing. This means I don’t make edits that aren’t necessary or comments that aren’t helpful. I respect the author’s writing style and voice and do not impose my preferences.

My English editing service includes copyediting and language editing

  1. Correcting errors of grammar, syntax, and word usage
  2. Fixing mechanical errors (hyphenation, capitalization, punctuation, use of italic and bold font, format of endnotes and footnotes, etc.) to ensure the document conforms to the publisher’s style guide or the client’s preferred editorial style (such as Chicago or AP)
  3. Improving sentence structure by rewriting long or unclear sentences
  4. Suggesting improvements of style without altering the author’s voice: eliminating clutter, improving verb choice, varying sentence length, using the active voice, etc.
  5. Suggesting ways to reorganize the content to improve flow and logic
  6. Querying any content inconsistency or anything else that may need the author’s attention
  7. Ensuring the document uses the right voice and tone for its target audience, and eliminating biased language
  8. Checking endnotes, footnotes, appendices, and figure and table captions
  9. Explaining my major editing choices (for example, rewriting or deleting a sentence) in plain English


My English proofreading service includes

  1. Correcting errors of grammar, syntax, and word usage
  2. Correcting mechanical errors (hyphenation, capitalization, punctuation, use of italic and bold font, format of endnotes and footnotes, etc.) to ensure the document conforms to the publisher’s style guide or the client’s preferred editorial style (such as Chicago or AP)
  3. Formatting references according to the publisher’s style guide (optional, for an additional fee)
