My greatest strength is my curiosity. I'm curious about you, your work, and how we can best get the ideas in your head out onto the page. Whether it's ensuring the logical soundness of an argument, the precision of your grammar and syntax, or making sure your voice is the one your reader hears, I lead with questions and follow through with excitement. It's your writing; I'm here to help make it better.

I hold a PhD in English from Duke University. I have over a decade's experience teaching writing at the high school and university level. I have worked as a developmental and copy editor guiding clients, students, and colleagues through successful writing projects ranging from complex, nationally-competitive grant applications to published pieces in both prestigious academic journals and public-facing literary magazines.

Below you will find a sampling of the kinds of projects I've edited. Whether it's a research article, a piece of public writing that translates that research into more direct prose, or marketing and blog posts, my services will make your writing more clear, more persuasive, and more effective.
