An experienced editor in literary publishing and corporate communications, my clients include both international corporations and writers whose manuscripts require a professional's keen eye. My clients have included Motorola, Chanel, American Express, McGraw-Hill, Swarovski Crystal, and The College Board, makers of the SAT exam. I am additionally the founder and editor of The Adirondack Review, acclaimed on-line literary magazine, and work in poetry publishing with co-editor Adam Deutsch.
I hold a B.A. in German with minor study in French from the State University of New York at Saratoga Springs, Empire State College. I also obtained the Zertifikat Deutsch from the Goethe Institute in Germany and am hence certified in German as a foreign language at the B1 level under the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. I am a member of the International Association of Business Communicators and the National Association of Professional Women.
My goal is to make each of my clients happy by providing professional editorial services at reasonable prices. I pride myself on making each client's experience a special one by using a highly individualized approach. My rates are reasonable and are determined by each individual project. I prefer to work for flat fees, but will also work on a per-page, per-word, or per-hour basis. Please contact me to discuss your project and how I can make your great article, book, product, or service even better by adding a professional editor's expertise. I look forward to providing you with a memorable, rewarding experience in meeting your professional communications needs.
