Editing for Nonprofits

Nonprofit organizations have the challenge of communicating with many different audiences. Smart ideas, proposals, requests, and reports all need to be clearly written and well-designed to be noticed.  My goal is to help individuals and nonprofits convey their mission and message in an organized and effective format. I offer intelligent editing and page layout skills, solid knowledge of nonprofit issues, and meticulous attention to detail. 

Background Information


DSCF1488.JPGI founded Icon Editing as a way to combine my commitment to nonprofit issues with my love of editing.  I have worked for Seattle-area nonprofits for over ten years:  as staff at both agencies and foundations; with boards, as a member and facilitator; and in research and consulting.  In 1999, I earned a Master's degree in Public Administration with an emphasis on Nonprofit Management from the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington.  In addition, I have a Certificate in Editing from UW Extension.  As a professional editor for the past six years, I have worked with both nonprofit and academic clients and as the associate editor at a national outdoor magazine.  I look forward to bringing my combination of skills to work for your organization.
