What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a client-centric, remote role where I can apply my editorial and QA expertise—especially my eye for detail, strong communication, organization, and problem-solving—to make a positive, recognizable contribution.

I’m a Senior Proofreader delivering remote, client-centric editorial QA for The Home Depot, where I ensure content is free of “typos, inconsistencies, and legalities” from start to fruition. I compare and analyze proofs for creative discrepancies, then review copy for accuracy, clarity, grammar, punctuation, and inconsistencies.

With 10+ years as a Freelance Editor/Owner (Copyeditor/QA Specialist), I’ve delivered content editing services—including website development support and marketing collateral—while conducting bug testing, QA screenings, and error reports. I ensure compliance with legal, regulatory, and branding guidelines, supply copy rewrites to strengthen the final product, and provide detailed annotations to production teams through Workfront.

I also bring leadership and process experience from managing and updating style guides and checklists, running a war room dashboard for defects/barriers, and leading/mentoring proofreading teams. Earlier roles include literacy instruction (K–5) and project/marketing management, plus legal assistant work that sharpened my research, documentation, and fact-checking rigor.
