Overview
I offer you my experience as proofreader, copy editor, technical editor, designer/illustrator, and fellow author to serve the needs of your projects. The way I like to do editorial work is to start by carefully reading and leaving detailed comments in your manuscript—using either Google Docs' suggesting mode or Microsoft Word's track changes features (your choice)—and submit my edits for your review. We then schedule a time to go over anything and everything you have questions about face-to-face over Zoom. For illustrations, we start by discussing and agreeing on your specific design requirements. Then I create the illustrations, send them to you for review, and we iterate until you are happy with the end results. If you dream of being a published author, I can help you attain your goals with outstanding quality and professionalism.

Work experience
Self-employed
I have written and self-published 9 books to date using skills I learned in my freelance work with a traditional publisher, plus many new skills I gained on my own. These include producing hardcover, paperback and e-books on the Kindle Direct Publishing platform, plus Gumroad PDFs, Audible audiobooks, and my own invention called the m-book©, which bundles e-book, audiobook, and videobook versions of the same content, an all-in-one online product.
Self-employed
I am the author of 18 books (all published by Wiley) on AutoCAD, Architectural Desktop, Photoshop, Illustrator, 3ds max, and Autodesk VIZ. I worked with numerous acquisitions, developmental, copy, and technical editors in this role for 13 years.
Self-employed
I edited 20 books as a contractor at Wiley, where I learned a great deal about the publishing industry and how software books are produced.
