What's the definition of great editing?
Professional Editing, of course.
Technical editing, copy editing, proofreading, project management (CE and PR stages), and fact checking. I have experience editing a variety of subject matter, including STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics).
Located in beautiful Columbia County, New York, I am connected to the world via high-speed broadband Internet. I am lucky enough to know several skilled editors whom I can call upon for big projects, so I can handle any size job, large or small, from anywhere in the world.
Subjects include but are not limited to science, technology, engineering, math, economics, education, firefighting, healthcare, manufacturing, business, computer science, political science, social science.
