Proofreading is the final, vital step in the writing and editorial process. Seemingly minor things (like incorrect grammar, a misspelled word, or a mistakenly placed punctuation mark!) can make a huge difference in a reader’s perception of your credibility. Grammar reflects the image you want to project. To be in control of the impression that you’d like to make, a final set of eyes is always needed.

I hold a proofreading certification from a leading proofreading course, Proofread Anywhere, and I am a member of Distributed Proofreaders. I am proficient in Word, with extensive familiarity of the Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS). 

As the former owner of a successful photography business, I have honed my skills of time management, flexibility, collaboration, self-motivation, and communication. Prior to my photography business my work experience included writing and editing for the pharmaceutical industry.
