My skills
I have specialist knowledge in many subjects including archaeology, history, travel, tourism and current news. Even if I don’t know the subject well, I’m always up for a challenge and willing to put in the extra effort to learn more about it, in order to get the best possible result for my client. This is because I’m passionate about my work. I believe in being thorough, organised and enjoy research, all of which help to achieve the best for the client and their product, or company.
I have a full office set up, with ability to video call. I not only have skills in proofreading, I write articles and web copy too. I'm proficient in social media, website updating and can create marketing and social media images and copy from specialist software too.
I’m happy to discuss any project you need help with, so if I'm the sort of person you're looking for, get in touch by emailing me.
