My qualifications are based on over two decades of editorial experience with print, digital, and online publications. ​I can provide stylistic or substantive editing services to ensure that structure, style, tone, voice, and reading level is appropriate for the intended audience. I suggest deletions, additions, or rearrangements of content for a more appropriate structure and sequence. In all cases, the author’s intended meaning is kept intact.
