Chris Acree
@chrisacree
I am a freelance writer, editor and proofreader with over ten years of experience in many different fields.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I've spent more than a decade writing across print and online media, from University of Louisville athletics coverage for The Cardinal Connect to researched opinion pieces for The Louisville Cardinal.
At Veritext Legal Solutions, I audit audio and video recordings against written transcripts, transcribe material to legal standards, and oversee legal-deposition video documentation for civil and criminal cases.
My journalism work includes sports stories, long-form features, columns, opinion pieces, event recaps, research, and interviews. I write with AP Style, factual accuracy, and readers' need for clear, engaging context in mind.
I'm also experienced in proofreading, fact-checking, multimedia reporting, and producing polished copy under publication guidelines.
