Line-by-line editing to sharpen your writing without erasing your voice. I focus on clarity, consistency, and correctness — tightening structure, eliminating distractions, and ensuring your message lands cleanly and confidently.
Need words that sound like you or your brand, but better? I write content that connects and sells, whether it’s a thought leadership piece, a landing page, or an email sequence. You bring the ideas; I’ll shape them into something clear, compelling, and ready to share and drive revenue.
See the forest for the trees: refine content, structure, and flow so your work lands with clarity and purpose. Whether you're drafting an article, essay, or book, I’ll help shape your ideas into something cohesive, compelling, and easy to follow.
Expert support for sales, marketing, and enablement teams using Seismic. Whether you’re launching a new tenant or trying to make sense of the one you inherited, I help you build a content structure that’s intuitive, scalable, and aligned to how your team actually works.
I started my career as a proofreader and never lost the obsession with precision. Since then, I've managed editorial for 15+ clients at a content marketing agency, led healthcare publications, created thought leadership for user researchers at Microsoft, and spent 6+ years in B2B SaaS building content that drives revenue in HR tech.
My editorial happy place includes developmental editing, copyediting, proofreading, and coaching writers through complex academic and professional projects (without crushing their voice). I'm also an experienced Seismic consultant ready to help enablement teams realize more value. TL;DR – If it involves words, structure, or getting unstuck, I'm your person.
I hold an M.A. in Publishing and Writing from Emerson College and a B.A. in English, Creative Writing, and Print Journalism from Suffolk University, and my proofreading once contributed to an award for production excellence at the New England Book Show. After several years in the Boston area, I now call New Hampshire home. When I’m not wordsmithing, you can find me adventuring outdoors with my partner, step-children, and border collies.
