Here are some examples of my work:

As a Publications Intern at Free State Review (for 2 years), I managed the community bookstore website (Kelly’s Book Shop). To help promote their authors, I added every contributor’s recently published book on the website, a favorite blurb about the book, and a link of where each book may be purchased. I also read and edited fiction, nonfiction, plays, and poetry.

I have worked for 3 literary journals: Free State Review, Sonora Review, and Exposition Review, in which I served as an intern to the first two and then an associate editor at Exposition Review. After 2 years there, I was promoted to a fiction co-editor position where I edited for a year. Overall, these experiences gave me 3+ years of editing experience after I earned my BAs in English and Creative Writing from the University of Arizona.

Through Upwork and Fiverr (2.5+ years), I have also edited short stories, essays, children’s books, YA novels, poems, business writing, poetry collections, and more. Check out my services on the Editing Services tab. Recently, I have also been editing nonfiction, business, self-help, and leadership books.

I also have experience writing sample dialogue and pitching a storyline for a mobile game development company.

I freelance edit for a digital marketing agency (1+ year), where I edit blogs and articles on various topics, including healthcare/mental health, business, technology, entertainment, and more.

I edited blogs/articles for a travel website. See examples of my editorial work:

Lastly, I edited an anthology of personal essays, short stories, and poems for Folkways Press, an indie publisher: https://folkwayspress.com/product/right-to-life-human-rights-anthology/

I am a monthly contributor at Path2Pub (1+ year), an online resource for writers seeking traditional publishing. Examples of my writing:

I am the editor-in-chief of FLARE Magazine (10+ months), a literary magazine that publishes fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry about disabilities, chronic illnesses, and mental health written by those who experience these things! I hope to bring about more awareness.
