Objective
I am seeking remote work that will challenge me as a proofreader/copy-editor and allow me to do what I love -- helping to make someone else's work even better -- while still being able to earn my income from home. You can see from my resume that I've been editing for over 20 years -- first as a high school teacher, later as a home schooling mother and tutor, and now as an independent contractor for transcription companies.
