In the beginning... How I got started in editing
I took my first editing job in 2012, as a freelancer working with the (now re-branded) small press Third Place Press, helping local and emerging authors prime their pieces for the daunting world of self-publishing. I continued working with Third Place Press for years, and was thrilled to watch as it transitioned into the now thriving VertVolta Design + Press under the creative eye of long-time bookseller and designer Vladimir Verano.
Over time and with more professional experience, I began taking on independent clients and specializing in key areas of the editing process. In addition to new authors, I work with businesses and individuals to edit online portfolios and publications, news articles, essays, manuscripts, marketing materials, and technology and science writing designed for public audiences.
