Let me help you transform your words from draft to dazzling—elevating your writing in anything from fantasy realms to factual reporting. My philosophy: I’m your best ally. Giving your project my undivided attention, working to perfect your prose, preserve your voice, and keep your readers engaged is my aim.

Following a long career managing TV programming for a local network affiliate station, I earned my Certificate in Editing from the University of Washington.

My editing style is meticulous and thorough, while also friendly and upbeat. Your writing is your baby. I get it. When we collaborate, it’s not about finding things to pick on—it’s about finding the perfect balance between respecting your artistic choices and ensuring your readers experience your ideas exactly as you intend. My lifelong passions for reading, writing, music, and art have honed my aesthetic sensibility, allowing me to appreciate both the technical and creative aspects of your work.
