Authoring and publishing scientific papers has given me technical skills that I can use to help others get their ideas published. I also do ongoing training through the Editorial Freelancers Association and LinkedIn Learning. In addition to improving my technical skills, I am committed to expanding my knowledge of inclusive language.
All of my writing and editing is human powered. That means that anything I write or edit for you is done without the use of AI. Likewise, I do not edit AI-generated content.
Also note that I follow Editors Canada’s Guidelines for Ethical Editing of Graduate Student Texts.

Every copyediting project is different, so I can provide a sample edit and project estimate based on a sample of the work.
In addition to being a federal contractor, I am registered with the Nevada System of Higher Education. I accept payment via ACH or PayPal.
