Great writing can change the world.


Your message is important. I can help you perfect it.

I specialize in working with clients who want to make the world a better place. Before becoming an editor, I earned two environmental degrees and spent more than a decade as a wildlife conservation professional in the nonprofit sector. I understand your commitment, and I want to help!

Whether you are writing public comments supporting wilderness protection, a children's book exploring the beauty of human diversity, or a flyer promoting shelter pet adoption, your work can benefit from an editor. What you have to say matters. Let's work together to make your words shine.

Below are some of the materials I've worked on in the past:

  • nonfiction books
  • fact sheets
  • press releases
  • web content
  • blogs
  • grant proposals
  • letters to lawmakers
  • congressional testimony
  • annual reports
  • business correspondence
  • children's picture books

Now, what can I do for you?



What People Are Saying


​Collaborating with Julie was truly outstanding. Initially tasked with copyediting two versions of our annual report, she went above and beyond when our graphic designer overlooked errors, volunteering to edit the report three more times. Julie's meticulous attention to detail and consistent editing approach proved indispensable, guaranteeing flawless results. We're certain to enlist her expertise for future long-form editing projects. Julie's responsiveness and ahead-of-schedule delivery of milestones were commendable, and her provision of a style guide for our future reports was an added bonus. Without hesitation, we highly recommend her services—a flawless 10/10 experience in every aspect!


--Kristin Bruce, Nomi Network


I did my research before hiring a professional, making sure I knew exactly what to look for when considering each person. Julie was perfect! She answered questions I didn’t know I even had before getting started, and she was thorough in explaining her process. She was beyond fairly priced for the knowledge and experience she had to offer. Each step of the way she was generous with her knowledge, giving additional suggestions and ideas with the edits that I needed as well as letting me know what the standards were in case I wanted to stick to those. She is extremely skilled at her job. She was respectful of my creative ideas. She never rushed me when it was my turn to complete something, but she was always efficient and gave me a clear timeline when she did her part of the work. It was truly a pleasure to get to work with Julie. I plan to work with her again real soon, without hesitation.

--Courtney Mayo, Author


Julie did a great job under time pressure to provide copy edit. She asked questions when content wasn't clear, and highlighted mistakes that were not picked up by others. Will hire her again. Well done!

--Michelle Wieland, Wildlife Conservation Society


Julie has fantastic attention to detail and a command of English grammar. She's a dream editor! We count on her review for our major projects.

--Meredith Fascett, Just Right Readers


Julie did an excellent job editing and reviewing my manuscript. It had been reviewed numerous times, but her suggestions helped my writing flow more smoothly while considering the use of Black American vernacular, which isn’t always grammatically correct. My book also included French words and foreign acronyms, and Julie provided the proper spellings, abbreviations, and punctuation. . . . Previously, I merged two documents, and she was able to catch the proper order of events and point out sections that were repeated. She provided a thorough, comprehensive, and detailed review along with a helpful style guide. I am pleased with her work, and I highly recommend her.

--Andrea Bediako, Author


Julie was simply outstanding in her duties as a proofreader for my work. Her keen eye for detail, deep understanding of language nuances, and prompt delivery were truly remarkable. Julie's insightful recommendations did not just improve the coherence and fluency of my document, but also maintained the essence of my unique writing style. Her consummate professionalism and superb communication skills ensured a hassle-free collaboration. I wholeheartedly endorse Julie's proofreading services to anyone seeking high-quality, precision-based editing.
