Writing & Editing

 

I help organizations turn information into clear, engaging content that people want to read. With more than 20 years of professional writing and editing experience, I'm particularly skilled at translating complex, specialized, or potentially dry information for general audiences while keeping the writing accurate, accessible, and human.

​

How I Can Help

​

• Website and organizational messaging

• Articles, newsletters, and other public-facing content

• Educational and informational materials

• Editing and rewriting

• Translating complex or technical information for general audiences

• Voice, tone, and audience engagement

 

I'm comfortable working across a wide range of subject areas, including topics that are new to me. I've created content about health, science, technology, history, financial literacy, consumer topics, children's media, and more—and I enjoy digging into unfamiliar subjects and figuring out how to make them clear and engaging for the people who need to understand them. Clients and publishers have included Mayo Clinic Press Kids, the Arthritis Foundation, Smithsonian, TIME for Kids, Disney, Sesame Street, Penguin Random House, Hachette, Scholastic, USAA, and Hasbro.
