About

I’m an Edinburgh-born, Manchester-based proofreader and indexer (and amateur bookbinder) with a love of beautiful books, old buildings and anything vintage.

I spent over a decade working as an academic librarian within Art & Design before redundancy and motherhood prompted me to go freelance, firstly as an indexer creating art and design content for academic databases, and then as a proofreader.

I now work mainly on non-fiction texts for traditional publishers, specialising in arts and humanities subjects.

I’m a Professional Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP) and undergo regular training in order to keep my professional knowledge up to date.
