I edit and proofread fiction (mostly romance) and non-fiction (mostly financial). It's all about balance, kids.
As a side project to freelance editing, I acquire and edit new adult, contemporary romance, and women's fiction.

Before becoming an editor, I worked as a trader and client services manager for a money management firm. My duties included overseeing account transactions; supervising administrative assistants; preparing and editing correspondence, documentation, and promotional material; and assisting in preparing financial plans.
