Hello! I'm Natalie.
Producing a quality academic paper requires solid research skills and a touch of artistry. That's where I come in.
I have a PhD in biology and over a decade of professional experience as a writer and editor. I have revised and edited over 200 manuscripts for researchers around the world.
I can help get your manuscript "publication ready" so that it reaches a wider global audience. I cater primarily to researchers and industry professionals who speak English as a second language.
Please use the contact form below to request a quote for your project. I look forward to hearing from you!
