Editing

I am an academic copyeditor with over twenty years of experience in preparing manuscripts for publication. My focus is on the social sciences and humanities, with special emphasis on Asian studies, anthropology, history, and religious and cultural studies. I work with both native- and non-native English speakers to achieve writing excellence in papers, articles, dissertations and book manuscripts.
