Writing

As a writing consultant, I have worked with Fortune 100 and 200 clients to help perfect their marketing and HR materials, including policies and procedures, training documents, and presentations.
I also have ghostwritten legal documents for clients, including all forms of memoranda and briefs to be filed in both federal and state trial and appellate courts. I practiced law for nine years with a major law firm and a Fortune 200 company.
Editing and Proofreading
In total, I have more than thirteen years of editing experience. I have edited and proofread marketing materials, scholarly articles, client-facing reports, grant applications, nonfiction manuscripts, reference books, white papers, and many other corporate materials in fields as diverse as law, engineering, education, and technology.
Coaching
Corporate clients have also called upon me to prepare and deliver a tailored writing curriculum to their new hires. My coaching services range from individualized instruction at the word and sentence level to classroom instruction on grammar myths and common usage errors.
