About

I am a Writer and an Editor by profession. I offer my services in writing different content including websites, articles, papers, blog posts, proposals and research papers in areas of interest for my clients. I also edit and proofread manuscripts and other written works. I work on a freelance basis when not committed to a fulltime engagement with authors or organizations. My work is basically to upgrade all written content to a polished quality before it gets to the target audience for proper and efficient communication of the intended message. I achieve this by: • Removing contextual errors and typos • Simplifying complex and incomprehensible sentences • Ensuring consistency in spelling, capitalization, and punctuation • Removing unnecessary repetitions • Removing plagiarism I also make suggestions of any required additions for clarity, or do re-writing on request. My other areas of training and work include Administration, management & Loss control, taxes, sales and marketing.
