Overview
My collaborative, author-first editorial approach has been honed over ten years of independent experience in the literary world. As a freelance professional, I nimbly work across genres from commercial to literary, and my publishing clients include Joffe Books, Brown Books, and Rubedia Publishing. Having extensively studied literature in both the United Kingdom and Canada, I am also capable of seamlessly transitioning between American and British English registers.
I specialize in growth-oriented but market-minded developmental editing, intentional line editing, meticulous copyediting and proofreading, savvy manuscript evaluations, and deft, informed manuscript positioning via submission package evaluations. I am dedicated to helping my clients plumb the depths of their potential through careful, personalized collaboration, guiding their original ideas with my unique creative energy through their adventures in storytelling. Whether you need someone to dig into your creative writing with a critical yet constructive, encouraging eye or simply need an empathetic ear to listen to your ideas, I am here to help you share your authentic voice with the world.
