About Me
"You write to communicate to the hearts and minds of others what's burning inside you. And we edit to let the fire show through the smoke."

I came to editing via a nontraditional vector—graphic design—and that visual experience with layout and typography informs my editorial work, allowing me to see text both syntactically and visually. And being a fan of audiobooks and podcasts, I tend to also process language on an auditory level, often reading aloud as I edit (in the privacy of my home office).
If you're passionate about your subject, I consider it my job to mirror that during the editorial process. I love working with creative people and hearing about what excites them. And it's even better when I get to help refine their work. What's it like to work with me? Read more about my style & philosophy. |
