My Career Background
I have extensive experience in editing and project management, including managing several concurrent projects while staying organized, liaising with team members, and delivering on deadlines. I am an independent worker but also a team player. I enjoy thinking proactively to increase efficiencies, and I thoroughly enjoy challenges.
In my freelance work, I have worked with authors, professionals, and fellow editors on many different projects becoming familiar with different client requirements and style guides.
I am enthusiastic about my career and continuing my growth as a champion for clear, concise, and accessible communication.
