I am a freelance science development editor and writer with a background in earth and planetary science, astronomy, biological science, and climate change. I have extensive experience in educational publishing, and am familiar with industry-standard editorial protocols, styles, and workflows. I have also written a health-focused book for general audiences with biochemistry Katherine Reid that was published by Rowman & Littlefield in September 2023. The book is available on Amazon, which allows you to look inside and read what I have written and edited. Currently I am writing a work of fiction.

I’ve edited literary fiction, poetry, and nonfiction; software documentation and training materials; newspaper columns; technical white papers and blog posts; social science dissertations and master’s theses; and tech industry news. Specialities include editing translations into English and editing texts by nonnative speakers of English.
I see editing as collaboration, as dialogue—from the first stages of development to the final proofreading. It’s always your book (article, essay, story, presentation . . .), not mine.

Book marketing strategist and copywriter who bridges the geeky know-how of HTML, SEO graphic design and tech culture with the strict grammatical standards of the publishing world. It is because of my years of experience as a publicist for one of the fastest-growing small publishers in the world that many authors trust me to represent their brands. It is rare to find a copywriter who knows both SEO and Chicago Manual of Style. I bring to this over a decade of experience WordPress and a fundamental understanding of best practices with social media.

I am a publishing professional with over 10 years of experience spanning editorial, writing, and production roles. I offer comprehensive expertise in guiding manuscripts from conception to completion. I currently work full-time in the editorial and production departments at a university press while maintaining an active freelance editing practice and continuing my creative endeavors. My portfolio encompasses diverse genres including fantasy, science fiction, historical fiction, horror, young adult, thriller, mystery, and literary fiction. I've also edited numerous academic books, medical articles, and journalistic works. This breadth of experience has honed my ability to work with varied voices and storytelling styles.
As both an editor and writer, I bring unique insight to the creative process. I am currently querying my second book for publication and continuing to promote my first book while working on multiple projects, including a third poetry book, a psychological thriller, a YA fantasy novel, and a memoir that is equal parts humorous self-depreciation, self-love, and self-help. My dedication to amplifying diverse voices and promoting inclusivity in publishing is reflected in both my professional work and personal advocacy.
Specializing in developmental editing, line editing, copy editing, and proofreading, I am passionate about helping writers realize their work's full potential. While a selection of my portfolio is available here, my complete body of work includes hundreds of edited articles and manuscripts across multiple genres.
