I am a formally trained editor and writing coach, with ten years of experience helping writers at all levels to achieve their goals and deepen their command of the editorial process. From admissions essays, to cover letters, to academic papers, I'll provide clear, encouraging, and easy-to-implement advice to help take your writing to the next level.
As an editor, I begin by addressing global concerns, making sure that the draft is well-organized, compelling, and appropriate for the task at hand. Next, I dive into local issues, fine-tuning the content so that your ideas can really shine. Finally, I tackle the details, addressing spelling, punctuation, and word count to ensure that your prose is ready to submit.
Whether you have a fully developed draft or just a list of ideas, I am here to help! I am a flexible collaborator and am happy to meet by phone or Zoom to chat, brainstorm, or edit. If you prefer to keep things asynchronous, I'll leave detailed comments and line edits in your Google document and be extra-available via email. At the end of our time together, you won't just have a stronger paper—you'll also be a stronger writer.
