About this Gig

Vetted Pro

I am an experienced professional proofreader and editor who loves crafting outstanding text. For over 7 years, I've been a freelance editor across various genres (from business and self-help to language textbooks, memoirs, and fiction). I hone every detail to ensure your book reads as smoothly as possible while retaining your style and flair.


I've previously worked as a freelance editor at Penceo, a communications agency whose clients include Audemars Piguet, International Weightlifting Federation, and International Fencing Federation. I was also the Digital Editor for France Today.


My English is excellent and I studied at the University of Oxford for four years (BA Ancient and Modern History; MSt Archaeology) so I am attuned to the style needed for academic books and articles.


I also work as a freelance writer and copywriter so I know what it's like on the other side of the equation!


I have edited books across various genres including business, self-development, wellness, memoir, history, arts, lifestyle, politics, travel, and science.
