Qualifications & Experience

My degrees in Religious Studies, Social & Political Thought and Social Anthropology have led to my particular academic interests lying within the social sciences.

I have also worked in an international publishing house and set up a business in the charity sector, so have a range of interests, experience and expertise. Working in publishing has given me a good understanding of book production, from commissioning, design and editing, right through to marketing and printing.

My relevant qualifications and experience are as follows:

  • Proofreading and copyediting qualifications (through The Publishing Training Centre)
  • MRes (Masters in Research) in Social Anthropology (University College, London)
  • MA in Social & Political Thought (University of Warwick)
  • BA Hons in Religious Studies (King's College, London)
  • Proofreading/copyediting PhD dissertations and Masters theses (for both English speakers and students for whom English is a second language)
  • Proofreading/copyediting articles and job applications (for new and repeat clients)
  • Proofreading and publishing project management for a local town guide
  • Three and a half years as Operations Manager for an international publishing company
