As a literary artist and freelance writer and editor, I support various initiatives across different organizations. My work includes knowledge dissemination projects, public health messaging, and advertising campaigns.
Copyediting
Journal articles, theses, syllabi, books, proposals, white papers, reports.
Proofreading and Corporate Review
Finalization of documentation, website graphics and copy, advertising assets, etc. All reviews check spelling, grammar, consistency and factual accuracy.
Development Editing
Begins with analysis-based assessment of material to clarify themes, improve organization, audience congruence. Progresses into editorial conversations to decide how to work together as author-editor to best results in agreed upon timeframe.
