In today's information era, it is crucial that your content is as precise as possible.

I collaborate with authors, editorial teams, and project managers to ensure that their finished content is precise and nuanced. My work process retains the narrative and stylistic goals of a piece while enhancing the accuracy, clarity, and continuity of the text. In addition to dealing with the discrete facts for each topic, I also collaborate with my editors to verify that the language and framing used on sensitive topics is respectful and that word choice is inclusive. I bring my rigorous attention to detail, a collaborative and conscientious work ethic, and a love of learning new things to all of my fact-checking projects.

The fact-checking process involves:

• Utilizing peer-reviewed academic literature and other primary sources

• Undertaking independent research beyond the sources provided

• Contacting subject-matter experts

• Collaborating with my clients to ensure the deliverable fulfills all of their needs
  

My bread-and-butter is fact-checking science communication content in the form of book manuscripts, magazine articles, and YouTube videos. I also work on documents and deliverables for professional clients across multiple industries, including standardized testing, professional animal training, science communication, and zoological facilities.

I do not use GenerativeAI for any portion of my work, and require clients to disclose any AI use in the research, creation, or editing of their projects.

Looking for a fact-checker for your project?
Please contact me - I’d love to hear from you.

I am currently booking manuscript fact-checking projects starting Fall 2026 & have availability for shorter projects during Summer 2026.
