Editing

• Copyedit: In-depth edit for errors in grammar and punctuation, spelling, style, and consistency
  

• Substantive edit: An in-depth copyedit (see above) as well as rewriting/reorganizing as needed to eliminate overuse of passive voice or awkward sentence structure
  

Writing

My writing versatility is reflected in the broad range of projects in my portfolio. My writing has appeared in many publications, including:

• Commercial publications such as Where and Washingtonian magazines
  

• Association publications such as Training & Development magazine (the American Society for Training & Development); Parks & Recreation magazine (The National Recreation and Parks Association); and Lodging magazine (American Hotel & Lodging Association); and Hotel F&B
  

• Corporate newsletters and marketing materials
  

Consulting/Book Agenting

In addition to offering book authors editorial services, I occasionally don a book agent’s hat. Examples of books that I have placed include Coaching with Spirit: Allowing Success to Emerge by Teri-E Belf (Wiley); Best Impressions in Hospitality by Angie Michael (Delmar); and The Naked Emperors: The Failure of the Republican Revolution by Scot M. Faulkner (Rowman & Littlefield).
