College courses, involvement with the campus newspaper and literary magazine, three internships, two freelance jobs and a whole lot of pro bono work have allowed me to gain diverse writing and editing experience.
I have written plays, student magazines, teachers' guides, marketing plans, software proposals, employee contracts and handbooks, sales letters, book proposals, jacket copy for books, blog articles, website content, news articles, feature articles, press releases, radio stories and commercials and television commercials.
I have edited fiction, nonfiction and poetry manuscripts, short stories, students magazines, teachers' guides, business documents and proposals, website content and news articles. I am proficient with:
-
Chicago Manual of Style
-
AP Style
-
MLA Style
-
Mechanical editing (grammar, spelling, punctuation, capitalization, hyphenation, agreement of subjects/verbs, formatting)
-
Content editing (diction, tone, style)
-
Editing by hand using standard proofreaders' marks
-
Editing electronically using the Track Changes feature in Microsoft Word
If you need a writer or an editor, please keep me in mind! While I have a broad range of experience for someone just out of college, I know there are still many writing genres that I have yet to discover the beauty of. I'm always up for trying a different writing style, and I've been told by employers that I pick up on new things quickly.
Anyone can say they're a good writer, but without proof, it means nothing. See for yourself! View my resume, portfolio, online writing samples or blog. I can also provide references upon request.
