Hello! I’m a fast, friendly, and versatile freelance copyeditor and proofreader based in Minnesota. I specialize in nonfiction books—especially business and management, humanities and social sciences, self-improvement, and education—as well as select fiction genres like thrillers, romance, and literary fiction.
I bring years of experience working with traditional and scholarly publishers such as Harvard University Press, W. W. Norton, Berrett-Koehler, Thomas & Mercer, and Montlake. I’ve partnered with numerous New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors. Others have been prominent scholars, debut authors, thought leaders, or self-publishers. All have remarked on my professionalism and how my work has elevated their manuscripts while fully respecting their voice and vision. As one author said, “You are unbelievable. Every comment and change just makes every page better.”
In addition to being a Chicago Manual of Style expert, I’m known for clear communication, positive energy, and a gentle but impressively thorough editorial approach. My credentials include a certificate in copyediting from UC San Diego Extended Studies, a BA in English, and an MA in teaching literature.

“Anthony’s editing significantly enhanced the precision and clarity of the manuscript, and brought it into final form ready for publication. He is clearly a master of his craft.” —Michael Dennis O’Brien, author of The Reverse Pinocchio Effect
