A full-language polish that improves clarity, flow, and academic tone while preserving your voice. I focus on precision at the sentence level and consistency across the entire document.
Strategic, one-to-one coaching for writers who want stronger structure, sharper argumentation, and steady momentum. We focus on the parts that matter most to examiners and supervisors.

With a PhD, MTh, BA (hons) in Psychology, and BTH (hons) in Practical Theology, I have a broad knowledge base and am able to work across disciplines. This is complemented by the vast experience I have accumulated from working in various roles in academia as a tutor, lecturer, academic coordinator, programme coordinator, and interim head of department at various times during my academic career.
I have been offering professional proofreading and editing services both nationally and internationally since 2011. With a good eye for detail, I help produce a clearly understood, grammatically correct, polished document, making your writing the very best it can be. I work on a wide range of non-fictional and academic material, including books, book chapters, journal articles, manuscripts, dissertations, theses, research proposals, and so on.
Although, on occasion, I have also edited the odd autobiography or some fictional material.
Most of my work is with humanities and social sciences texts. However, I welcome enquiries relating to almost any subject matter, and have edited a wide range of topics in a plethora of diverse fields, including:
