Editing has been a passion of mine for many years, I have a natural ability to mold the right voice and flow for every project I pursue through my editing. I have been fortunate enough to be able to lend my talents to many projects for both pleasure and for monetary gain.  Graduating from college in 2009, I found myself in the unfortunate position that many other young and educated people have found themselves in over the past few years--hopelessly unemployed. Over the last three years freelance copyediting has become by bread and butter; it has allowed me to live my life as I would like to, traveling, pursuing my entrepreneurial spirit, and spending time with my family, while still being able to devote my natural ability to a worthy profession.  I have certainly found myself with the occasional odd job of being paid pennies for editing thousands of pages, yet for some reason I take every opportunity and try to see the positive.  I have learned so much from every endeavor I take on, I now find it hard to say "no," as I never know what I might learn; learning is growing.  The opportunity to join Editor World would surely give me plenty of chances to grow every day. I never thought that at 25 I would be categorizing myself as an editor, however, I believe everything happens as it is meant to happen and I am extremely lucky to be pursuing the career I now call my own.  I find great pleasure in helping to produce content that is, hopefully, being enjoyably read.  I work long hours and fully commit myself to projects, knowing that the harder I push myself, the better I will become at what I do. Thanks for your time, I hope to hear from you soon.
