What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork, offers growth opportunities, and allows me to utilize my administrative and customer service skills.

I am a professional proofreader, editor, writer, and fact-checker with more than 11 years of experience working across academic, business, faith-based, and web content. Over the years, I have edited theses, journal articles, books, manuscripts, reports, marketing materials, and online content, ensuring every piece is clear, coherent, and error-free.

My approach goes beyond correcting grammar and punctuation. I pay close attention to structure, tone, flow, and consistency while preserving the author’s voice. As a fact-checker, I carefully verify information to ensure accuracy and credibility, especially in research-based and technical documents.

I am detail-oriented, deadline-conscious, and committed to delivering polished work that meets professional standards. Clear communication matters to me, and I take pride in helping writers express their ideas in the strongest possible way.
