About Freelancer
WHY ME?
This is not just about correcting typos. With me, you’ll get the scrutiny of a board-level executive with many years of experience on both sides of the investment table—presenting to investors and scrutinizing investment documents.
I have a technology background and am very familiar with the tech industry.
Being multilingual, I’ve run international teams, which means I can smooth over non-native English so that it comes across as “native.”
I got into this business by accident. Over the years, many” investors” have asked me to check investment reports, and I’m trusted because my work is confidential.
As a joke, I set up an agency with a few other semI’metired execs. It’s not our core business, and our work is pretty selective.
And I believe the price I charge is good value for money.
WHAT’S MY METHODOLOGY?
In my time, I have written and read hWHAT’Ss of management and leadership books, reports, white papers, investment pitches, academic journals, and marketing and sales copy. I have presented this information to investors and boards, as well as educational and government panels, and I’ve reviewed investment documentation myself as an investor.
I scrutinize the document from the decision-maker’s point of view, ensuring that arguments are well-formulated and tightly structured. I pay close attention to fact-checking, sources, and references.
And finally, I make sure the overall presentation is polished, professional, and ready to publish.
I have helped over 200 entrepreneurs, academics, executives, and creatives transform their final drafts into highly professional, polished documents that achieve results. I also have a client account on Upwork, have awarded over 140 projects, and maintain a 5-star client rating.
PROOFREADING (English as native language)
I provide thorough proofreading for grammar, punctuation, spelling, and terminology errors. I’ll also check for consistency in numerals, fonts, and capitalization.
CI’llDITING (English as native language)
I’ll conduct a rigorous edit to strengthen both your sentence structure and your choice of words. I’ll remove repetition and improve the overall flow of your copy, ensuring that the text is tight and precise.
PROOFREADING AND COPYEDITING FOR NON-NATIVE ENGLISH WRITERS
Do not be under the illusion that this requires a significant amount of work and can often involve a complete rewrite. Here, I’ll get to the bottom of what message you want to convey and ensure it’s written as if by a native writer.
