Maria V.

I am a freelance copyeditor/proofreader, teach Business English as a second/foreign language, and occasionally translate (Ita-Eng). I am interested in developing and gaining clients who may wish to outsource their proofreading and copyediting needs. I am presently Editorial Assistant, Copyeditor and Proofreader for the Insurance Advocate Magazine, and enjoy working with independent authors of various other articles and independent writings and magazines. Formerly I was an Assistant Editor for the Italian Journal. My background includes 20 years' experience as a legal secretary and assistant, and work in hotel and European hospitality management. I am skilled in creative writing and enjoy taking disjointed sentences or thoughts and turning them into something interesting to read.
