About me

After many years working in IT, database administration and knowledge management roles, I embarked on a History degree at the University of Reading. Since then, I have completed an MA(Res) in Medieval Studies and a PhD in Medieval Studies, both also at University of Reading. The many years I have spent in academia have taught me to write with clarity and accuracy, to ensure that my ideas are effectively communicated to my readers, and I can help you do the same with your own texts.

I have extensive experience of working with references, footnotes and bibliographies, and as well as being a part-time lecturer in History, I am co-editor of the journal Reading Medieval Studies.

I am a member of the CIEP (Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading), and have completed several courses through the Institute:

  • Proofreading 1: Introduction
  • Proofreading 2: Headway
  • Proofreading 3: Progress
  • Proofreading Theses & Dissertations

I am able to proofread academic work (preferably in Humanities subjects), as well as business and marketing material, and websites.
