Need a hand getting something finished?

I help people with writing, editing, research, educational resources and digital content. If you have a small project you can’t quite finish, tell me what it is and what you can afford. I’ll give you a clear answer about how I can help.

What I can help with

Useful help across several kinds of work.

I take on specific, bounded assignments. These are the areas where I can usually be most useful; if yours is different, describe it and I'll assess whether it's a fit.

01 / WRITING

Writing and editing

Articles, blogs, bios, CVs, résumés, cover letters, personal statements, newsletters, manuscripts, social copy, proofreading, grammar and tone.

02 / RESEARCH

Research and verification

Public-source research, organizing documents, building timelines, checking claims, comparing sources, formatting references, and research briefs.

03 / DIGITAL

Website and content help

Website wording, home-page reviews, page structure, editorial calendars, accessible text, promotional material, and communication planning. Technical work is quoted separately.

04 / EDUCATION

Teaching and academic support

English-language learning materials, lesson worksheets, presentation text, graduate writing feedback, APA style and research organization. Student work remains the student's own.

How it works

We agree on the job before I begin.

01

Tell me what you need

Send a description of the job, any existing materials, and your deadline. A short inquiry is enough to get started.

02

Confirm the scope

I'll explain what I can complete for the proposed price and when to expect it. If necessary, we'll adjust the job to fit your budget.

03

Receive the deliverable

The agreed work is delivered digitally. I can address corrections needed to meet the original instructions.

A note on professional boundaries

I provide lawful research, editing, educational guidance and creative or digital work. I do not provide professional legal or medical advice, fabricate sources or complete students' assessed assignments for submission as their own. Ask before sending sensitive or confidential materials.
