Custom English-language editing by an experienced academic geologist 

— Geology, geophysics, geography, environmental science, planetary science, and the wider Earth sciences —

I am a former academic geologist with more than 60 publications in discipline-leading journals including Nature Geoscience, Nature Communications, Geology, and Earth and Planetary Science Letters. My successful track record of publishing, reviewing, and attracting research funding gives me a unique academic perspective on a wide range of scientific editing requirements.

From proofreading through to intensive developmental editing, I work directly with authors to achieve the impact their science deserves.
