I am an experienced and qualified member of the Society for Editors & Proofreaders in the UK, a qualified editor and proofreader with experience of working in either UK or US English. English is my first language and I have a lot of experience with employers whose first language is not English.
My experience covers editing and proofreading of biographies, novels and self-help books for publishing companies and independent authors from various countries. I have also helped to develop and design several books.
I have significant experience of editing and developing business documents for organisations. During my previous career in local government finance, internal audit and corporate governance, I gained an MBA (Distinction) and wrote, reviewed, edited and proofread over 1,000 reports. I also have a lot of experience in editing and proofreading dissertations, essays and journals for a variety of international customers.
All of my customers have provided excellent feedback on the quality, clarity and added value of my work. I have also been awarded ‘difficult’ projects due to my thoroughness and eye for detail. I pride myself on doing an excellent job, my reliability and meeting tight deadlines.
I can edit and proofread your work in Word with tracked changes providing daily progress updates. My services include editing and proofreading, working to or developing a style guide, suggesting improvements in consistency.
