Meticulous proofreader with 15+ years in fast-paced environments.
What I'm looking for
I am a meticulous and detail-oriented proofreader with over 15 years of experience in fast-paced creative environments. My career has been dedicated to reviewing scripts, production documents, and cross-functional communications for high-profile brands such as Netflix, Disney, Mastercard, and TEDx. I pride myself on my ability to catch critical errors and ensure clarity and tone alignment, which is essential in maintaining brand integrity and technical standards.
Throughout my career, I have standardized show documentation and cue sheets for touring productions across four countries, significantly reducing miscommunication and improving execution accuracy. My work has included proofreading and refining production scripts and internal documents for major live experiences, which has honed my skills in upholding consistency across complex documentation. I am now seeking to bring my detail-focused eye and collaborative spirit to a proofreading role in a mission-driven, editorially rigorous team.
