Individual
Hello! I am an experienced, analytical and strategic proofreader, editor and writer seeking a freelance or salaried job opportunity in the Northern Virginia area and willing to start immediately.
In my most recent role that I held for more than three years, I helped companies communicate more effectively to job candidates as an employee at a top recruitment advertising agency. I worked on everything from social media posts, banner ads, HTML email blasts, print/digital ads, brochures and website content, to requests for proposals and new business presentations. My clients included the Veterans Health Administration, U.S. Air Force, NAVAIR, Lockheed Martin and Exelis/Harris.
In addition, I have written and/or edited magazine and newspaper articles, blog posts, direct mail, email newsletters and press releases.
If hired, you'll quickly find that I am organized, efficient, detail oriented, focused, dependable and always willing to go the extra mile for on-time content delivery. My professional goal is to find employment with a company where my skills and experience will be an asset to the business while furthering my knowledge and abilities in the process.
Top Skills: Associated Press Style, Microsoft Office Suite, Adobe Acrobat/Reader, Google Docs, Print and Digital Communications
Education: Bachelor of Arts Degree in Journalism and Psychology

Having worked with Stephanie for over three years, I believe I can reliably recommend her as a valuable employee with the skills and personality to make any company a better organization.
As a writer and proofreader, Stephanie has been a solid, dependable resource for our office, and offices and clients around the country. On multiple occasions she has delivered challenging copy for demanding clients on tight schedules, and we will miss her skills. She has demonstrated a strong vocabulary, and her command of syntax and grammar are admirable.
In addition to her daily tasks, Stephanie competently (and patiently) dealt with many random requests we front-end web developers presented to her, questioning or editing web page content provided by clients and other coworkers. She was always willing to provide a thoughtful and smart solution; she inspired confidence in us that our web sites would appear professional and intelligent.
Stephanie is a dedicated employee who brightens the work environment. She is a self-motivated and independent employee who manages to produce superior results regardless of her setting: open (distracting!) cube; walled office; working from home. She also participated in, and brought/shared fun and laughter on many after-hours social gatherings.
It was a pleasure to have worked with Stephanie, and I am certain she will be highly successful in any future position.

I worked with Stephanie for over 2 years at TMP Worldwide. She is a top-notch asset for proofreading, AP style and particularly brand style. Stephanie’s eagle-eyed attention to detail saved what would have been embarrassing mistakes in many a presentation and pitch. Not only is Stephanie adept at proofing large-scale documents such as RFPs and strategy presentations — she is also vastly experienced in proofing content presented within conceptual creative design: print advertising, web sites, radio and even video. I’d gladly recommend Stephanie as an addition to any team and I look forward to the opportunity to work with her again.
