Dissertation and thesis editing for committee approval and journal submission. Your committee doesn't grade on effort. They grade on submission quality: argument clarity, citation accuracy, and formatting that matches their exact standards. I edit PhD dissertations, master's theses, research papers, and journal manuscripts. I focus on what actually gets manuscripts rejected: argument gaps, citation errors, weak transitions, inconsistent academic tone, and formatting that violates your style guide. What I've delivered: — 65+ PhD and master's dissertations edited and committee-approved — 120+ journal articles formatted and published — 50+ clients with work accepted in peer-reviewed international journals — Disciplines: medicine, business, social sciences, law, education, engineering, and humanities My credentials: ACES Certificate in Editing at the Advanced Level, the highest tier ACES offers. MBA from Georgia State University. Bachelor's from LUMS, one of South Asia's most research-intensive universities. Top Rated on Upwork with a 100% Job Success Score across 70+ completed projects. Here is what I fix that most editors miss: ◉ Argument gaps between your claims and your evidence ◉ Citation errors: page numbers, source matching, and in-text consistency ◉ Full formatting compliance in APA 7, Chicago Notes and Author-Date, Harvard, MLA, Vancouver, IEEE, or OSCOLA ◉ Register shifts that flag non-native writers to reviewers ◉ AI-generated sections with hallucinated citations or fabricated sources, verified against primary sources before your committee or reviewer sees them ◉ Table and figure labels, headings, and cross-references throughout the document I deliver every project using Track Changes in Microsoft Word. You see every edit. You approve or reject each one. I explain my reasoning on every substantive change. You get your document improved, not rewritten. What I edit: ◉ PhD dissertations and master's theses, all chapters and complete documents ◉ Journal articles and research papers, submission-ready ◉ Literature reviews and systematic reviews ◉ Research proposals and methodology chapters ◉ Statements of purpose and graduate school applications ◉ Academic book chapters and monographs for journal press submission Citation styles: APA 7th edition, Chicago Notes and Author-Date, Harvard, MLA, Vancouver, IEEE, and OSCOLA. ESL editing: I work with non-native English-speaking researchers across medicine, business, and social sciences. I preserve your argument and your data while raising your academic English to publication standard, without erasing your voice. Turnaround: 48 hours on most projects. Revisions included until your committee or editor is satisfied. Confidentiality: 100% on every project. Send me your document type, word count, citation style, and deadline. I will respond within two hours with a clear scope and delivery date, before you commit to anything.
