What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values precision and clarity in communication, where I can contribute to impactful educational initiatives.

I am a seasoned technical editor, copy editor, and proofreader with over 20 years of experience supporting large-scale federal education data initiatives. My expertise lies in copy editing, technical editing, quality assurance, and publication review, with a strong focus on adhering to the U.S. Department of Education’s Institute of Education Sciences (IES) Style Guide and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Statistical Standards.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a proven ability to present complex information clearly and concisely to a wide audience. At the American Institutes for Research, I played a key role in editing reports and technical documentation for the NCES, ensuring accuracy and clarity while conducting quality assurance checks throughout the publication process. My commitment to detail and consistency has been instrumental in developing editorial standards that enhance the quality of educational publications.
