What I'm looking for

I seek remote editing roles where I can improve clarity and accuracy, work with collaborative teams, handle high-volume projects, and grow into larger editorial or project-management responsibilities.

I am a dedicated copy editor and proofreader with three years of professional experience enhancing clarity, accuracy, and flow across business, academic, and creative content. I consistently apply AP, Chicago, MLA, and APA style guides to deliver publication-ready work and maintain client satisfaction above 95%.

I am proficient with Microsoft Word (Track Changes), Google Workspace, PowerPoint, and PDF markups, and I manage high-volume projects under tight deadlines while preserving version control. I have produced and polished over one million words of English content, including transcripts, dissertations, résumés, web copy, and manuscripts.

I collaborate closely with authors and business professionals to improve structure, tone, and readability, and I bring strong grammar and syntax expertise, deadline adherence, and project-management discipline to every engagement.
