I wanted to be an editor since my junior year in high school. I wanted to be paid to read. Many years later, I can attest that there is much more to editing than reading, but I am still so glad I made the choice to pursue that goal and gain the knowledge and skills to become an editor. It has been such a rewarding path for me. It is a joy to help authors achieve their goals. I am honored to be a part of that process.
You will find I am an editor with heart. My goal is always to encourage and support you as an author. I want to help you make your book the best it can be. As an editor, I am the bridge between you as the author and your readers, and my goal is to ensure that your writing is clear and effective so your story will shine. Readers will connect with your words because they are polished and intentional.

Testimonials
I hired Caitlin many times to edit my academic work. We have been working closely together for almost a decade. She is phenomenal—not a single edit was suggested after her work. She is quick, honest, responsive, and kind. She never judges but instead motivates you to become a better writer. You will not find a better editor! I highly recommend Caitlin.

Caitlin worked on a copy-edit for my children’s book. Very quick turnaround time. She went above and beyond what I expected of her work, which was to correct errors and grammar, she also added suggestions for easier understanding and offered rephrasing ideas. I was very impressed with her knowledge and I will go back to edit my original (German) version to revise it based on her phrasing suggestions as well. Highly recommend! Her experience in editing is showing in the excellent quality of her work.
