Why Hire an Editor?

Conveying effective social policy data and research requires detailed thought and analysis, as well as considerate writing.

​

The credibility of your writing depends on its professional presentation.  This is where an editorial review can benefit you. 

 

Copy Editing:

I will confirm the accuracy of the grammar, punctuation, and formatting, while you focus on the content.

​

Content Editing:

As a policy professional with an academic background in public administration, I can review the content for logic, continuity, phrasing and make suggestions for message clarity.  I will help make sure your reader understands exactly what you mean to say. 

 

For clinical trial documents, I will provide content editing before you submit the materials to your IRB.  I can also suggest modifications to the ICF in alignment with HHS guidelines for plain language and simple descriptions. 

 

I have GCP certification for clinical trials and have professional experience submitting protocol materials with local and central IRBs.

​

ESL Content Editing:

I will review your content for grammar and punctuation, in addition to phrasing and structure.  I will suggest vocabulary and syntax that provides clarity to your writing so that your document is professional and reads naturally.

​

Types of Material:

Public policy reports, contract proposals: RFPs and RFIs (non-clearance), journal articles, media articles, grants for nonprofit and public programs, book manuscripts, PhD dissertations and clinical trial documents.

​

Style Guide:

I will utilize any style guide you require, such as APA, Chicago, AP, in-house, etc.  Specify your requirements in your initial quote request.

Your time is invaluable, and your work deserves to be professional and correct.
