I am a Seattle-based freelance editor focused on copyediting nonfiction of all sub-genres and formats.
I am proud to have received a Certificate in Editing from the University of Washington, and my professional memberships include ACES: the Society for Editors, the Northwest Editors Guild, Editorial Freelancers Association, and Personal Historians Northwest.
My mission: I strive for precision and care in editing, taking a relationship-based, compassionate approach to make content shine, mutually benefiting clients and their audience. In a global era of disinformation, my work elevates accuracy, thoughtfulness, and accessibility.

Working with Julia on my debut memoir was everything I could have hoped for in an editor. One thing that stood out to me was Julia's deep editorial expertise, especially regarding marginalized communities. I believe this experience helped transform my story into its most powerful and meaningful version.
