Is "OK" good enough?

The more you proofread your own work, the less sense your words make.

As a qualified and accredited Proofreader and Copy Editor, I will enhance and add value to your work. It helps that I am a self-confessed and passionate wordsmith too.

By allowing me to professionally review your projects, you can publish them in the knowledge that they will be polished and error-free.

These are just some examples of the authored work I have undertaken and is by no means exhaustive.

About me

I eliminate the errors that others miss...

I learnt how to both read and write by the age of three. Enid Blyton’s “The Magic Faraway Tree” is still my favourite book to this day! I developed a passion for the English language from that early age, which has only grown stronger with each passing page.

Before becoming a freelancer, my career was in customer services. This incorporated industries such as automotive, retail and business consulting. I soon found myself the unofficial proofreader in every job I ever had! Rather than continue to talk a good game, I decided it was time to become accredited in the field.
