I have been offering professional proofreading and editing services since 2014 and work with clients around the world.

I enjoy delivering excellent quality work and customer service while working with new and returning clients.

How I Can Help You

My goal is to help polish your book to highlight your content and message—so your readers are impressed by what you have to say instead of being distracted by mistakes and common errors such as grammar, usage or typos. I use the proofreading and copy editing features in Microsoft Word. These "redlining features" help me advise you about spelling, grammar and word usage errors as well as to make comments and suggestions for edits to help clarify your message to better serve your readers.

As a lifelong reader and avid Kindle user, I read constantly and am often distracted by common spelling and word usage errors that could have been corrected by a careful professional proofreader like me! I look forward to hearing about your project and how I can help. Contact me today! I look forward to working with you!

My Areas of Expertise

I proofread and copy edit both fiction and nonfiction books for independent authors, publishers, and business professionals.

My nonfiction experience includes self-help, personal development, leadership, business, psychology, health, wellness, and memoir. I enjoy helping authors communicate their ideas with clarity while preserving their unique voice and message.

On the fiction side, I specialize in romance, including contemporary, billionaire, sports, small-town, and romantic suspense, as well as crime, legal, and psychological thrillers. I enjoy working with authors to create polished, engaging manuscripts that keep readers immersed in the story rather than distracted by errors.

Whether you're publishing your first book or your twentieth, my goal is to provide thoughtful, detail-oriented proofreading and copy editing that helps your writing shine and gives you confidence in your finished manuscript.
