About

Your content, improved.

Hey, writers — looking for someone to tidy up your grammar? To help your words flow effortlessly? To identify confusing concepts that may have been created or overlooked after hours of tinkering? To remedy utterly nonsensical, befuddling, convoluted (read: unclear) phrasing?

You’ve come to the right place! (I bet you saw that coming.)

Words are powerful. It’s amazing that, when put together just so, little signs and symbols allow us to communicate and share big ideas. But let rough, untamed copy out into the wild, and your arguments may be misinterpreted and/or misjudged, and even worse, your professional credibility takes a hit. Cue scary music.

Let's prevent that from happening.

?You'll find that I'm detail obsessed and work diligently to address client needs. I have over 8 years of editing experience. (With a BS in biology and English and an MS in library and information science, I'm especially comfortable with topics relating to the life sciences and humanities.) I'm practiced in AP, MLA, AMA, and CMS and have also worked in accordance with in-house style guides.

??Your ideas matter. That means your words matter. And that means you need an editor.

Together, we will troubleshoot and perfect your work, ensuring that the end product fits both your vision and your readers’ expectations.

Work Terms

I am available during normal business hours (PST).
