I have an excellent eye for detail as the company I worked for is a high brow business in the UK so the quality of the books we created must be of a high standard. I have just embarked on a freelance career, to utilise the skills I have gained throughout my working life. I have completed a few proofreading projects already on another freelance site with fantastic feedback and a continuation of work and have my own website set up getting good feedback.

    I currently work on a continuous basis for Audible, proofreading their Audio Books for them.

    I also have excellent references from my previous job, which can be seen on request.

    Area Covered: UK
