Since 2013, I have been self-employed as a freelance academic copy editor ( Korrekturlesen und Lektorat ) in Vienna, Austria. During this time, I have also had research contracts at the WU Wien, University of Vienna, and the OeAW as part of my MSc and PhD studies.
• BA Sociology (University of British Columbia, 2013)
• MSc Health economics and demography (WU Wien, 2015)
• PhD Demography (University of Vienna, expected 2025)
As a Canadian editor in Austria, over 90% of my English proofreading and editing clients are non-native speakers. My understanding of the German language as well as local political, social, and every-day aspects of Austrian life give me contextual knowledge that helps me understand and correct your academic texts.
At 0.05€ per word, my academic editing and proofreading services cost less than those provided by major academic publishers. Flexible pricing may be available to match your funding or project budget.
