Detail-oriented editor with a passion for literature and publishing.
United StatesAs a dedicated editor with a strong background in English literature, I have honed my skills through various roles in publishing and academia. My journey began at McGill University, where I earned my MA in English Literature, followed by an intensive course in publishing at Columbia. These experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of the literary world and the intricacies of editing.
Currently, I am working as a Research Assistant in Los Angeles, where I copyedit manuscripts and conduct extensive interviews for research. My previous roles, including Quality Assurance Editor and Fiction Editor, have allowed me to refine my editing skills and develop a keen eye for detail. I am passionate about maintaining the author's voice while ensuring clarity and coherence in the text.
