As your editor, I strive to not only help your words flow from the first word to the last, but also to help you grow as a writer. To that end, my editing style focuses on helping you make your writing shine within the document I'm editing and in the future.

I aim to give you actionable feedback so that you can improve your overall writing. I absolutely love working with repeat users and watching them incorporate writing tips to grow as writers. There's nothing more rewarding as an editor!

If direct requesting me, please see the best times to catch me on the right. :) I try my best to accept ALL direct requests, so if I happen to miss yours, please know it's only because I was at capacity for the timeframe you requested, was unavailable for some reason, or was sleeping when it came through. :-)

We all have a story to tell, and I love documents that bring those stories to life. I also love documents that bring a new perspective or interpretation to any topic.

What do you do when you’re not editing on Kibin?

I love anything that gives my creative juices room to flow freely, from writing professionally and personally to tackling one of the 50 up-cycling projects on my to-do list. I also love listening to podcasts and reading in a wide-ranging number of genres.
