Editing

Even the best writers need an editor. From proofreading print magazines to copy editing novels or editing quick-turn blog posts, I am here, not only to save you from the embarrassment of using “hone” when you meant “home” (although I’ll do that too!). I’ll also make sure your pages look sharp, your words are crisp, and that your voice comes through with power and consistency. I edit with empathy; provide clear, actionable feedback; and work with writers to find their voice and publish work they can be proud of.

PAST WORK

WRiting

Working for years in a newsroom and print magazine setting is the best training a writer can get. I approach every writing assignment with the mindset of a seasoned journalist—whether for a magazine feature article or a corporate blog post. With a degree in biology and decades working in tech media, I specialize in breaking down complicated subject matter so the average reader understands it and wants to learn more.

PAST WORK

  • Patient education articles for Kaiser Permanente

  • Feature articles for Portland Monthly magazine

  • Breaking news & feature articles for CNET.com & CNET Magazine

  • Feature articles for Cityvision magazine

  • Newsletter copy for Seven:Thirty skincare

  • Blog posts for Sui Foundation

CONTENT OPERATIONS

Let’s be real. Publishing can be high-stress, with demands for creativity and deadlines that always come too soon. I control the chaos of publishing environments. I specialize in overseeing editorial workflows and will adapt to your specific editorial process, connecting teams that need to work together and ensuring that good copy gets created, vetted, and promoted in the most impactful way. I can generate publishing calendars, manage deadlines, facilitate QA and approval processes, and create social media copy to maximize visibility.
