I am a Harvard-educated editor, writer and teacher. A meticulous and swift copyeditor, aI taught high school English for many years, before leaving to focus on my own writing. I am a native English speaker, with three master's degrees (English, Creative Writing and Counseling Psychology). I have worked as a freelance editor and proofreader for over five years, helping authors to perfect their fiction and nonfiction manuscripts. For me, it is all about protecting the author's voice -- making sure its distinctive style, diction and syntax are even clearer AFTER copyediting than before. My job as a proofreader is to be invisible -- to clean up any errors, so that your voice and words come through most powerfully.
