Editor for Spiritual and Fiction Writers
I have come a long way: from starting out in financial services, to taking time off to raise my children, and then starting over to pursue editing. The learning never stopped—neither did the evolution.
I'm deeply drawn to people's stories—especially those that reflect profound wisdom and transformation. I also love engaging with metaphysical narratives that explore higher consciousness and life beyond the physical world.

I have strong training in copyediting and proofreading, and to date, I've worked on over six million words in popular fiction and creative nonfiction.
As a professional editor, I strive to edit each manuscript with care and minimal intervention ensuring clarity and consistency so that every moment of the reader's time feels worthwhile and engaging.

Here's how I can support you on your writing journey:
Copyediting
Once the structure of your story is set and the content is finalized, copyediting ensures—
- Consistency in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and style
- Consistency in capitalization,
hyphenation, abbreviations, and typography - Elimination of ambiguities,
redundancies, or obscurities - Accuracy of facts, figures, dates, cross-references, and timeline and character names in fiction
- Conformance with the guidelines in the Chicago Manual of Style and spellings in Merriam-Webster
Proofreading
Once your book has been copyedited, proofreading is a final quality check that focuses on—
- Correcting minor spelling,
grammar, and punctuation issues - Fixing inconsistencies and errors in capitalization, hyphenation, and abbreviations
- Checking for incorrect figures, dates, page numbers, captions, and cross-references
- Flagging formatting issues,
missing elements, and missing or repeated text - Consistency with the house style or a standard style guide
