I'm a seasoned journalist who has conducted and transcribed literally thousands of interviews in my 14+ years. I've covered just about every topic out there, and spent years editing the publications I've worked for. That means I'm a speedy and accurate writer, transcriptionist and fact-checker. Being an experienced journalist gives me an edge when I transcribe - not only do I get word-for-word what I hear, but I understand important grammatical differences and style: the difference between "it's" and "its," for example, or "their" and "they're." If I hear something I don't know, I'll research to find out what it is. All these tiny details means you get an extremely accurate and clean file returned to you. I am happy to follow particular formatting instructions and use timestamps if so asked. I have much experience with audio files that have background noise, as well as accents. In short, my goal is to make my clients as happy as possible.
