The Society of Editors South Australia

I write and edit based on the principles of clear English. I specialise in making technical, jargon-laden and academic texts clear to their intended audience.

I have over ten years experience in preparing documents for online and hardcopy delivery, and am confident and skilled in both mediums.

My experience includes private enterprise (TV documentaries, IT, instructional design, banking, superannuation and tourism), government (web content and human resources) and non-commercial organisations (schools, universities, academic researchers, community groups, street and student press).

I have studied professional writing and editing at a tertiary level.

The range of services includes documentation planning, writing, editing and proofreading.
