About Me

I have worked with words for the past 25 years as a copy editor, proofreader, layout artist, project manager and production coordinator.

I have worked on a wide selection of material for many and varied areas of industry, including research reports for a business consultancy (Computer Sciences Corporation), investment articles for a publisher providing articles for Fortune and National Geographic (International Investment Guide), legal documents for a firm of solicitors (Titmuss, Sainer and Webb) and government documentation for a commercial printer (CCP).

Another client, International Investment Guide, uses me for copy-editing articles written mostly by authors whose first language is not English.

Ian Head
“I’ve worked with Keren for over 20 years now in all types of media, both in-house and freelance. The reason I keep going back to her is that she is the best proof-reader, editor and copy researcher I have worked with. Regardless of the media, be it web copy, a printed article for National Geographic, or slides being presented around the world, she is always able to correct errors, aid consistency and improve readability where others cannot.” Ian Head, Managing Director, Head-E Design Limited (www.head-e.com)
