Copy Editing

editorial, production, project management

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.
