What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values clear communication and creativity, where I can contribute to impactful storytelling.

I am a dedicated copy editor with a strong background in editing and proofreading across various platforms. My experience includes working with environmental law essays, where I ensured clarity and adherence to style guidelines for authors primarily from Spanish-speaking backgrounds. I thrive in fast-paced environments and have a keen eye for detail, which has allowed me to maintain high standards in my work.

In my previous role as Digital Managing Editor at the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, I was responsible for assigning and writing breaking news stories while ensuring that all content met AP Stylebook standards. My ability to optimize website content for SEO and manage multimedia elements has equipped me with a diverse skill set that I bring to every project. I am passionate about storytelling and committed to enhancing the quality of written communication.
