Overview
I also have an MFA in Fiction, so I understand what it is like to have your work edited. I respect each author's style and have worked with writers and journalists of all different types. I am always willing to listen, suggest, and guide while respecting your voice, in addition to fixing typos and grammar errors, of course.
Outside of work, I love cooking, movies, books, theater, art, music, restaurants, nature, traveling, cats, psychology (I almost became a therapist!), and all things parenting.
I hope to work with you soon!
