Top Rated Plus✅PhD holder✅Solid publication record✅Over 300 texts edited✅Native English speaker✅Member: Professional Editors Guild✅ AI-savvy ✅Patient and meticulous✅ Available seven days per week✅ I excel in helping writers overcome obstacles to achieving their publishing goals. Word choice, sentence structure, logical rigour, and thematic consistency can make the difference between a publisher accepting or rejecting a manuscript. If you need a precise, punctual, and thorough writer, proofreader, copy editor, reviewer, or just general academic guidance, then I can help! I also have experience enhancing AI-generated writing to meet publishing standards. This takes the sort of skill and complex thinking that LLMs can't do on their own. I have a PhD in philosophy of science and have successfully copy-edited over 300 texts (both on Upwork and for a top UK editing company). There are some writing and editing samples in my Upwork portfolio. I have also published several papers in high-ranking journals, written two books, and given numerous conference talks. I can therefore help with whatever writing or speaking tasks you might be undertaking. I am also available for consultations if you have intellectual ideas you'd like to stress-test. The same goes for advice related to entering academia or undertaking academic projects. This includes advice or supervision for students, as well as input on research projects or related undertakings. I have recently been specialising in helping aspiring PhD candidates through the PhD-by-publication process offered by some universities. I have also been guiding independent scholars through the process of conceptualising, researching, writing, and publishing a paper or book with a recognised publisher. (Please note that I do not use AI in my work unless requested. I am also not available to manipulate AI-generated manuscripts specifically to pass an AI detector test, as opposed to being generally more 'human'-sounding.)
