What I'm looking for

I seek roles focusing on science and health writing/editing where I can apply plain-language skills, ensure editorial quality, collaborate with authors, and work on meaningful, research-based projects.

I am a detail-oriented science and health writer, editor, and proofreader with over five years of experience producing, editing, and proofreading research-based, technical, and health-related content.

I bring a strong foundation in academic research communication, plain-language editing, and quality assurance, and I specialize in translating complex scientific information into clear, audience-appropriate materials.

My freelance work includes substantive editing, copyediting, and proofreading for scientific, medical, and technical manuscripts, ensuring compliance with journal guidelines and style standards like AMA, APA, and Chicago.

I manage multiple projects and tight deadlines while collaborating closely with authors and clients to deliver publication-ready documents and provide developmental feedback on scientific logic, data presentation, and clarity.
