Professional Experience

Trained at The New Yorker, I am an impeccable editor and copy editor who has been on staff at some of the most intellectually demanding publications in the English-speaking world, as well as working at large-circulation magazines and newspapers. I handle everything from copyediting corporate communications and general-interest articles to deep editing of scholarly books. Few can match my experience, range or client satisfaction. Thank you for entrusting your work with words to me.
