Professional Experience
I am an editor with a great eye for grammar and developing content. I enjoy working on nonfiction projects as well as fiction, especially young adult and thrillers/mysteries, though I am open to, and have at one point in time dealt with, everything from newspaper articles to academic journals, and from bestselling romance to niche new age. I have done developmental editing on over 40 titles, and I have proofread and copyedited over 400 titles for legacy publishers. I have also edited on a contract basis for Shared Hope International and Simons Foundation, dealing with job descriptions, white papers, and press releases weekly. I also currently write on a regular basis for Healthline and Elephant Journal.
