I’m a licensed educator and former scientist. Sometimes my editing and writing work involves education, science, or both. Sometimes it involves neither. But the projects I take on tend to be those that I hope in some way make a positive difference.
I author, edit, and review educational materials, often as a science subject matter expert or conscious language–trained reader and remediator; edit scholarly works, including doctoral dissertations; edit for publishers and self-publishing authors; and edit for nonprofit and for-profit individuals and organizations.
* I listen with intent.
* I am creative and practical.
* I respect readers by using sensitive and inclusive language.
* I protect and promote the voice and message of authors and organizations.
* I edit and write clear, correct, consistent, and coherent copy for readers and learners.
If you create content that deserves its proper attention and care, please do reach out. I’d love to talk with you about what matters to you.
