ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Maren. Working with the English language and continuously learning about it is a passion for me. Yes, I’m that grammar nerd who actually finds language jokes funny!

With a 20-year background in academic English instruction, I have become finely tuned to errors of all sorts. I am an English language professional with an eye for detail and an appreciation of well-written work. I have provided English proofreading, copy editing and content writing assistance to clients ranging from a medical professional to a major resort to a dog rescue organization.

My goal is to ensure that your English copy or content piece is the best that it can be.

I was looking for a proofreader and someone who could help me with the translated version of my book "Connect, ask and inspire!" Maren did an excellent job and delivered second-to-none quality work. Maren has the ability to sense what the message of the writer is, and this was not lost in the translation.
