Editing

I have experience editing articles, video scripts, educational materials, short stories, and novel excerpts, especially literary and speculative fiction (i.e. science fiction, horror, surrealism, etc.). Beyond my real-world experience, I’ve also taken courses in developmental editing from UCLA extension.

Especially if you’re looking for newsletter editing, I’m your guy! I previously served as lead editor for the monthly newsletter, The Genomics Landscape, incorporating best practices to drive up subscribership and engagement.

And even if you’re unsure what type of editing is best for you, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Writing

I have a keen eye for tone and style, which I will use to produce the final product you’re looking for. I’ve written feature articles, press releases, newsletters, educational materials, scientific papers, video scripts, blurbs for websites, and everything in between. My current clients include the Public Library of Science (PLOS), for whom I write press releases on a wide range of topics (see examples in my portfolio).
