Overview
As a passionate editor and mentor with 20+ years of experience, I look forward to helping your manuscript shine! I specialize in health and wellness, self-improvement, race, culture, and diversity.
I approach each project from an editorial lens and with the curious mind of a reader, enabling authors to engage with their work in new ways. Do you need assistance with structure, tone, or narrative flow? Are you uncertain about how to connect with readers? We can refine your manuscript so that it resonates with your target audience.
If you're concerned about unconscious bias and inclusivity, my services as a sensitivity reader can illuminate ingrained mentalities when it comes to things such as race, gender, sexual orientation, age, education, socioeconomic class, language, and cultural and social norms.
I have collaborated with writers of all skill levels to help their work reach its potential. I would love to help you effectively express yourself on the page! If you are looking for a compassionate wordsmith who values authenticity and can expertly shape content, please don't hesitate to reach out. Let me know what kind of TLC your manuscript needs so that we can work together to realize your vision.
*PLEASE NOTE: I will be available for new projects in January 2026.
