How I'd describe my personality in two sentences
I am an avid reader with high standards and a passion for languages. Curious and love learning or trying new things, but my dream since sixth grade has been to become an editor!
How I'd describe my approach to my work
I begin by correcting obvious spelling and punctuation errors while doing a preliminary reading of the work, then do a more thorough editing of grammar, style, and consistency, reach out to the writer for any necessary reworking of the text and make corrections to the received changes, and finally make sure formatting is standardized throughout the entire piece.
Why should you choose me for your project
I provide fast turnaround, clear communication, and impeccable spelling and grammar.
I am now also offering out of scope work (beta reading, substantive editing, transcription, typing, translation into English, and more)!

She is so prompt, professional, and talented. Response time was quick and any requested edits I had, she was happy to adjust. Very great to work with. She even went above and beyond to help point out errors in the main manuscript that needed attention. She has a great attention to detail.
