  Since 2011, I've been helping a diverse pool of clients fine-tune their words and ideas.

Services provided include:

Copyediting and line editing. I can ensure stylistic consistency and fix errors in grammar, punctuation, and spelling. With a more in-depth edit, I can improve the clarity and flow of your prose.

Developmental editing. If you have a messy rough draft, I can help you figure out how to make it all work.

Manuscript critique. I have a BA and an MFA in creative writing, and I'm also the managing editor of StoryQuarterly, an established literary journal. Ive spent hundreds of hours reviewing and critiquing fiction, and I give thorough, solution-focused feedback.

Content writing and ghostwriting. Give me an outline, and I'm happy to make it come alive on the page.

Proofreading. I can be your last line of defense against stray errors.

Past projects have included:
Novels and memoirs
Nonfiction books and ebooks by subject matter experts
Nonprofit grant/award applications
Business website copy
Technical manuals
Blogs
Product descriptions
Brochures
Video captions
Newsletters
Academic journal articles and PhD dissertations

I have a strong track record of working with researchers for whom English is a second language. Clients say that I'm a fastidious, thoughtful editor who is also easy to work with and manages to be both honest and kind. I know that every project is different, and my editing is always tailored to the needs of the writer and the project. So drop me a line—chances are, I can help you find your voice.
