I am a detail-obsessed control freak – and I’m not afraid to admit it!

I have been known to read books on punctuation and grammar for fun. I have an inexplicable internal drive to correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. In addition to that, I am an avid reader (in all honesty, I used to read shampoo bottles in the shower as a teenager just to have something to read while my conditioner did its job). I decided to combine my compulsion to correct with my love of reading into a career opportunity.

As a former English teacher, I have a firm grasp on correct usage and good style. I’ve also honed my skills writing and editing numerous marketing publications, newsletters, grant proposals, and other documents for non-profits during my day job. Lest you think I’m a strict grammar maven, I recognize that sometimes the creative impulse requires breaking the rules, and I promise not to squelch your creativity if you send me fiction to review. For non-fiction and business documents, however, I will be a stickler for the rules.

I have completed my Specialized Certificate in Copyediting with the University of California San Diego.
