Overview
I help nonfiction authors turn strong ideas into clear, compelling, publication-ready books. Drawing on extensive experience at major publishers, I bring strategic insight and meticulous editorial skill to self-help, business, professional, and academic manuscripts.
Whether you need developmental editing, copyediting, or a final polish, I work closely with authors to strengthen structure, sharpen language, and preserve your unique voice. I’m especially skilled at guiding projects through revision with clear communication, thoughtful feedback, and steady support.
My background in educational publishing and literacy brings a reader-focused approach to every manuscript. I can help clarify complex ideas, improve flow and organization, and elevate sentence-level precision without losing warmth or authenticity.
Clients value my thoroughness, responsiveness, and calm, collaborative style. My goal is to make the editing process productive, encouraging, and genuinely useful—so your manuscript is polished, professional, and unmistakably yours.

Awards
- Team CSA Gold “Anna has done a great job on various Copyediting and Proofreading projects ... She is able to jump into them with minimal guidance/training, including ones that are done directly in a client's CMS (i.e., Contentful, Learnosity).” HMH Apex Award “The task required a special kind of creative writing: revising raw manuscripts from the vendor for a more literary feel, carefully using only pre-taught words and words with known phonic elements, calculating the percentage of decodable words, and revising again to meet the demand for 75%–80% decodability. In addition, Anna’s organization and enthusiasm for the task were notable.”
