What I do

Professional & Business Editing

Proposals, tenders, manuals, course materials, and thought-leadership writing.

I strengthen structure, clarity, and tone so your documents sound polished, credible, and easy to follow.

AI Text Humanising

In today's busy and competitive world, most people are using AI to speed up the writing process. I reshape AI drafts into writing that feels natural, nuanced, and authentically human.

Academic Proofreading

Dissertations, theses, journal articles, and research papers.

Careful proofreading and stylistic improvements to ensure your work meets academic standards and reads clearly.

About me

I am a qualified proofreader and editor with Doctor of Social Science, a Master of Education, and a Diploma in Proofreading & Editing.

My work focuses on helping founders, consultants, coaches and professionals to communicate their ideas effectively. I also specialise in supporting non‑native English speakers. I increasingly work with AI created texts to make sure that they communicate the appropriate style, register and tone.

I have authored peer‑reviewed academic articles, co‑authored an English‑language coursebook, and bring extensive experience from business, education and research contexts.

Testimonials

Debra cleaned up the spelling, punctuation and grammar issues in my recent masters assignment. She also made comments to help me make my writing more readable. Debra is very friendly with a key eye for detail. She is knowledgeable about academic writing and understands the ethics and boundaries involved in working with students’ writing.

MH, Spain

I am an Arabic speaker and sometimes I have to write letters in English to high level government officials. Debra has helped me several times with ensuring that the English was good. Most recently, she worked with me on an important project tender and reworked my long, translated text into a targeted and effective slide deck proposal. Debra is very efficient and good to work with.
