Editor, proofreader, writer, and academic coach

Hi there! I'm a professional editor, author, proofreader, and university professor with 17 years of experience. I’m meticulous, I love helping people improve their writing & editing, and I have a real eye for detail. My services include copy editing, line editing, and developmental editing. I can help you with a broad range of content -- my writing & editing background includes psychology, philosophy, biology, business school content, DEI, popular science, statistics, survey construction, website editing, and executive reports. If you're trying to get into a top college or graduate school, I can help you craft the perfect college essay, statement of purpose, or personal statement. I can also help you perfect your master's thesis or PhD dissertation, empirical studies/manuscripts, CV/résumé, and other academic work. For those applying to faculty positions, I can help you craft killer research, teaching, and diversity statements. I can also help with career coaching, especially if you're in academia. In case it's relevant, I'm culturally sensitive, multilingual, and well-traveled, so if you need someone who can write for diverse populations, I'm your person!
