Proofreader and copy editor specializing in fiction and nonfiction. Ten years’ experience editing for print and online publishers.

Overview

I am a meticulous and focused editor and proofreader who has worked in-house with two major publishers. I began my career in publishing working with independent publishers and authors at Ingram’s Lighting Source Inc. Later, I was hired as an editorial assistant with Simon & Schuster’s Howard Books division and was quickly promoted to Associate Editor.
