editing
I perform editing at any level, from advising on content structure to checking for consistent style.
My areas of particular expertise include:
• Revising expert-written text for audience appropriateness
• Redesigning documents for increased readability
• Editing for length (to meet funder requirements or design constraints)
• “One voicing”
• Creating in-house style guides, including recommendations for inclusive language
