Editing

My philosophy: Make it clear, but not generic.

In other words, I keep two things in mind: ensure the material communicates well, and preserve the writer's unique voice.

I have a 15-year background in substantive editing, copy editing and proofreading. Here are a few places I've worked:

Newspaper
Rochester Business Journal
University of Rochester Currents (See Volume 28, 1998, for samples of my editing style.)

Magazine
Publishing Directions (Saturday Evening Post, Woman's Day)
University of Rochester Review (I proofread a number of issues in 1996-98.)

Internet/Intranet
Global Crossing Ltd. (intranet sites for IT, InSite Workplace)
(Sorry, these sites are proprietary. But if you send me your address in an e-mail, I'll snail-mail a retired version of the page.)

Marketing
Ward's Natural Science Establishment (biology catalog)
The Health Association (annual report)
Global Crossing Ltd. (e-mail rollout awareness/education campaign)
University of Rochester (admissions newsletters)

I also have many years of experience in public relations and employee communications in academic, non-profit and corporate settings.
