Seasoned LANGUAGE QUALITY SPECIALIST available for language-critical freelance assignments
I grew up spending summer days in the John Steinbeck Library in Salinas, CA. While my parents worked, I'd get lost in the stacks, poring over maps and comics, losing myself in adventure novels and travel books. Days at the pool were great too, but there was nothing like my public library. It was there that I first recognized the potency of language as a bridge and its singular role as a conduit to knowledge.
As a freelance linguist, I offer my clients not just a proficiency with words, but a commitment to facilitating connections between writer and audience. With an eye for detail and an ear for nuance, I work to ensure that each expression is thoughtfully crafted with finesse and clarity. I edit and proofread literally any text for vastly diverse organizations and individuals, and sometimes just for fun
I earned a master's degree in Linguistics at Brown and, coupled with my professional background in language services, I have cultivated a sharp acumen for linguistic detail. I have particular expertise polishing English content written by non-native speakers.
