Freelance

• Massachusetts, United States

• Freelance Copyeditor/Copywriter

  • Sep 2020 - Jun 2021

  As a copy writer, I've written articles on everything from home and garden to employee recognition strategies. I know how to research my assignments quickly and thoroughly, work under tight deadlines, and adapt my tone to the content I've been assigned to write about. As an editor, I've had assignments from editing a nonfiction book to reviewing cover letters and job applications. I know how to edit in Chicago, MLA and APA, and know how to preserve the integrity of the project even as I make changes. When beta reading, I read unpublished works, providing proofreading, editing, and feedback; one set of feedback led to the complete revision and restructuring of an author’s work. Show less
