If your content is unclear, your audience won’t complain. They’ll just stop reading.

After a 15-year career in publishing, I saw a need for editorial expertise in the nonprofit sector:

​​

  • Orgs doing incredible work, but not getting the engagement their content deserved.

  • Teams who wanted to create high-quality, accessible, and inclusive content, but didn’t have the editorial specialists they needed to make it happen.

  • Writers who understood the value of strong editing, but had to struggle through a DIY process every time.  

My clients are doing important, meaningful work — and I help them communicate it in a way that’s engaging, effective, and always clear.

 

In Canada and worldwide, I’ve helped dozens of organizations improve their content and connect with their audiences.
 

Clarity IS impact. People can only connect with your work if they understand it, exactly as you intend. 

“Jenny was a wonderful editorial partner to work with. She was thoughtful, collaborative, detail-oriented, and quickly understood both the strategic goals and tone of the work. Jenny's contributions strengthened the piece's structure and readability while preserving the integrity of the underlying ideas. I would absolutely work with her again.”

Miye McCullough, director of communications and marketing, Digitunity

“Jenny has been an incredible asset to our team, supporting us with copyediting for a range of deliverables, including technical reports—both small and large—and proposal submissions. Her extensive background in editing, copyediting, and content management shines through in her meticulous attention to detail and exceptional quality of work.”

Research + Communications team, Be the Change Group

“Jenny is a thorough and detailed editor. I appreciate her keen eye, which, for a recent project, was very helpful when she noted some language and tone issues, flagged these to me early on in the project, and offered rephrasing suggestions to the authors to ultimately resolve the issue. I look forward to continue working with Jenny and would recommend her to anyone looking for a meticulous and professional editor.”

Lindsey Malinowski, senior production manager, Canadian Scholars/Women’s Press/CS Business Press
