<div style="text-align: justify;">I am a native British speaker, but I&rsquo;m also familiar with US English. For six years I lived in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, and I&rsquo;ve been proofreading and content editing on a freelance basis since 2010. My experience ranges from theses, academic manuscripts for publication and website content to less formal documents, such as flyers, event programmes, children&rsquo;s comics etc. My background is in biological sciences; I hold a Bachelors degree in Medical Science and a Masters of Research in Toxicology, both from the University of Birmingham and I have experience of PhD-level research at Charles University in Prague. I still keep as up-to-date with research into life sciences as possible, and I love a good discussion or debate! In particular I enjoy editing scientific and academic documents, and assisting non-native English speakers with their use of language and giving them constructive feedback. In my spare time I enjoy volunteering at cat rescue shelters, digital drawing and colouring, cooking and baking, and playing video games!</div>
