TESTIMONIALS

Throughout my career I’ve collaborated with authors and clients from a variety of sectors. Please find below a number of testimonials from those I've worked with, as well as a selection of some of the published material I've worked on.

Andrea was instrumental in helping us complete our high quality and very successful edited volume. She proved a first-rate editor, substantially improving the readability of chapters from a number of authors, many of them with different writing styles. Andrea's remarkable attention to detail and refined grasp of different stylistic conventions transformed our work into a finely polished manuscript that brought praise from our publisher and sped the final stages of production. And she was a joy to work with throughout!

Andrea is by far the best editor that I've come across in my academic career. She not only has an eye for detail and is able to ensure editorial consistency, but also knows what makes for an accessible and persuasive argument. I have now worked with Andrea on two edited volumes and her insights and precision were outstanding on both. I would definitely hire her again!

Andrea really helped me create work I was proud of. She spotted errors that many others had missed and made sure my use of English was appropriate and eloquent. She handled the scientific subject matter in her stride and was really encouraging about my work in general. A fantastic service by a fantastic editor!  

Ulrike Harjes

Senior Editor, Springer Nature

Andrea is a superb editor! She is keenly aware of how a text can be improved for the reader and her comments were always insightful and constructive. She was a pleasure to work with and I highly commend her services.

Andrea is without doubt the best editor I have worked with, both in terms of technical skills and in terms of her ability to understand the material and to edit appropriately for the subject matter. My publications have been significantly improved as a result of the work that she has done on them.

Andrea is an editing ninja! Her thorough and supportive approach helped me transform an autobiographical piece I had been struggling with for months to a much clearer and more concise read. With her astute awareness editing with the reader in mind, she helped me develop my story and structure whilst retaining the essence of what I was trying to say brilliantly, and her thoughtful suggestions and corrections strengthened it ten fold. I was also really impressed at how quickly she turned round the reviews. I had a tight deadline which she helped me to meet, and yet her perceptiveness and thoughtfulness to the subject area was impressively thorough.

Andrea also handled my work with real care and respect. She understood what I was trying to convey and took the time to explain all of her suggested amendments. She also made it really clear that any changes she suggested were 100% down to me to accept, reject and amend as I saw fit. As a non-writer her encouraging and friendly approach was really supportive and I found it a really empowering process. In short, I would not hesitate recommending her to anyone struggling with any piece of writing. And if you’re like me and feel weird and stressed out by writing about yourself… just hire Andrea!

Andrea did a fantastic job editing my work. Not only did she ensure everything adhered to house style, but she made excellent suggestions to improve clarity and readability. Her eye for detail is exceptional and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking to produce high quality writing.

Gregory Deacon

Former British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow

Writing isn’t something I do a lot of but part of my job involves public outreach. After fretting and redrafting several times I reached out to Andrea, who helped transform my thoughts and ideas into clear and straightforward statements. She was quick, efficient, and gracious. I absolutely loved working with her and heartily recommend her services to anyone!
