I bring a decade of combined experience across multiple facets of editing—from writing as an author and ghostwriter to hands-on work in proofreading, copy editing, line editing, and word auditing in the insurance industry. My experience includes five years in law enforcement transcription and records, where I focused on formatting and language clarity—ensuring reports were accurate, consistent, and professionally presented.

I’ve worked on manuscripts at every stage of the editorial process, and I’ve explored a wide range of writing styles and genre-specific storytelling techniques. I’ve trained under Phon Baillie of Edit Republic and earned certifications in proofreading, copy editing, line editing, and developmental editing. I’m currently expanding my skills in book coaching to better support authors in achieving their writing goals.

My real-world experience is varied and practical: I hold a BA in Criminal Justice and have worked in martial arts instruction, self-defense, firearms, veterinary care, medical transcription, and civilian law enforcement roles including records, inventory, and transcription. I’m a lifelong learner with a passion for research, language, and helping authors refine their stories with clarity and care.

I love digging into word choices, exploring emotional nuance, and making sure every story I touch is ready for publication—with intention, precision, and heart.
