I can write on any subject, clearly and concisely. A great deal of my experience is in television news where I learned to write quickly and correctly under pressure. I have also quite a bit of technical writing and legal research experience. I have a graduate degree in law and am qualified to practice in the United States. While I am most comfortable in the American style I am perfectly capable and qualified in British English as well. I have a very careful eye and am quaified to proofread and fact check. I can also critique for style and flow.
