About

Dedicated & hard-working writer/editor with eight years of experience in editing & proofreading seeks a position as a copyeditor or writer for a small or large press.

I've been writing since I was eight years old. I've always had a fascination with books and publishing. In my freshman year of high school, I got my first taste of editing and publishing. Since then, I've been doing everything to be involved in it. I've edited peer's papers for grammar, workshopped hundreds of peer's fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, and I have been involved in the making of two books (a chapbook of my work and an anthology for my peers' work). I'm dedicated to perfection so that no distracting errors slip by and diminish the power of the written word.
