Scarlett Lindsay

I am a skilled copyeditor and proofreader specializing in higher-ed, academic, and nonfiction publications. My goal is to ensure that clients present their work to the world in the form of polished, error-free content.

I work with higher-ed and academic publishers including W. W. Norton, SPi Global (for Cengage and Cambridge University Press), and Teachers College Press. I also copyedit and proofread scholarly manuscripts as an editor at Brigham Young University’s Faculty Publishing Service. My experience is not limited to academics, however. I have edited publications such as marketing materials for the eLearning startup Acrobatiq and have delved into books in the self-help and life-coaching arena.

In addition, I have eight years of in-house experience at Pearson Education, where I worked my way up from production assistant to production editor. I hold a Certificate in Editing from New York University and am proficient in Chicago, APA, and MLA style guides. I edit Word documents, PDFs, and hardcopy manuscripts and proofs.
