About me

I’ve always been a bookworm and most at home in a library or snuggled up in a book nook. My love of words has been a constant throughout my life, and a degree in English Literature naturally followed.

I also love teaching others and sharing my knowledge, reflected by my 15 years as a teacher in primary education. I’ve also been a bookseller and an assistant editor for a financial magazine. Are you sensing a theme here? I also love reading historical fiction and listening to history podcasts.

I enjoy supporting my clients with a wide variety of projects. I particularly like working on education books and educational materials as I can draw on my previous experience.

Here are some examples of what I could proofread for you:

* educational resources * education books * textbooks * non-fiction books * children's books (non-fiction and fiction) * history * historical fiction * memoirs * biographies * autobiographies * wellbeing * business * cookery books * leaflets * magazines * press releases * newsletters * business reports * blog posts * CVs * cover letters * brochures * websites *
