Why I became an editor
I needed more time with my family, especially my children.
I worked as a nurse for more than 20 years and spent long hours on duty, not having time for my family or even myself.
Since I love reading and can easily spot errors in written content, I believe proofreading is the ideal job for me. This allows me to spend time with my family while making use of my eagle eyes and doing the things I love.
Background and experience
I primarily worked as a nurse for 20 years.
In my previous job, I was often asked by my colleagues and staff to review, edit and proofread their reports/letters before submission.
Why I love proofreading and editing
I want to help writers create more readable and clear content. I especially enjoy proofreading formal business documents and anything on the subject of medicine/nursing. With proofreading and editing, I can help others with their written pieces and do what I love.
Favorite book:
“The Good Millionaire” by T. Harv Eker.
Hobbies:
When I'm not proofreading, I'm most likely to be found helping my children with their school assignments or doing my household chores.
Editing tips:
When I first open a document, I immediately save the original and create a clean copy. Then I make sure the proofing dialect is set correctly before I start proofreading and editing.
