United StatesWhat I'm looking for
Hello! I am a new editor and an author in the making, passionate about the written word and dedicated to honing my craft. With a keen eye for detail, I strive to ensure that every piece I work on is polished and engaging. My journey in editing began with formal training from a professional book editor, where I learned the intricacies of the book production process and the vital role editing plays in it.
Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience in various roles that have enhanced my writing and editing skills. As a content editor for children's books, I have collaborated closely with authors to refine their narratives and ensure clarity and coherence. My role as a secretary at First Presbyterian Church allowed me to manage communications and media, further developing my organizational and proofreading abilities. I am eager to leverage these experiences in a position that allows me to contribute my skills and grow as a professional.
