Janet understands the demands of each project she takes on and works diligently to produce clear, concise, and effective writing. She is wonderful to work with and goes above and beyond what is asked of her. Her attention to detail, tireless editing, reliability, and flexibility are a few of the many qualities that make her an excellent choice for editing or writing projects. She has helped me improve as a writer and constantly pushes me to expand my skill set further. Highly recommended!

I have been working closely with Janet since 2010, and enjoyed every minute of it. Janet has offered me her brilliant, thoughtful, and proficient editing of scholarly papers, grant proposals, conference lectures, and my PhD dissertation. Janet offers not only the most careful and engaged editing, she also shares great ideas about content and structure, and is experienced in explaining how to improve my writing, offering me tools I can use. Janet also has a unique ability as an editor and a tutor to help my own voice to be heard in the most articulate way possible, -- an ability not many editors share. Janet puts a lot of time and effort into every project she works on, never missing a sentence, and providing wonderful and original ideas and comments. I recommend anyone looking for a professional, thoughtful, and serious editor or writing tutor to contact her, she is the best you can get!
