Editing

A good editor does more than check for spelling and whether the right “there/their/they’re” has been used. A good editor checks a document for style, for consistency, for readability. A good editor makes your writing shine.

I started working as a professional editor in 1992 and have continued to this day. I edited numerous textbooks, seminars, workbooks, video guides and other material for the American Hotel & Lodging Educational Institute. I even edited workbooks in Mandarin Chinese (and no, I don’t speak Mandarin Chinese). I edited professional research papers for private club managers who were pursuing their Master Club Manager designation.

More recently, I have been editing reports and policy briefs for the Education Policy Innovation Collaborative. Some samples of documents I have edited can be found here:
