I am an experienced editor offering copy-editing and proofreading services, specializing in illustrated non-fiction. Reliable and customer-focused, I work with publishers and businesses to ensure words and images leap off the page for all the right reasons.
I particularly enjoy working with complex and colourful content, so my ideal project would be an illustrated guide on the history of surface design, islamic pottery or the work of William De Morgan.
My specialisms
- Art & Design (especially decorative arts, ceramics, surface design)
- Business (books, brochures, guides, marketing material, reports, tenders, websites)
- Education: ELT content
Tools of the trade
- Microsoft Word (formatting, templating with styles)
- PDF markup (PDF mark-up tools and/or BSI proofreading stamps)
- PerfectIt (industry software enabling efficient document checks)
My interests
Architecture, art, ceramics, design, history of design, Spain (culture, history, language), the natural world
