I would enjoy the opportunity to proofread your book! Aside from a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration/Marketing, I have also taken courses in desktop publishing and graphic design. In college, my professor recommended me to be a communications tutor to provide constructive criticism on other students' writing assignments. I also gained much professional experience in formatting layouts as a Marketing Coordinator for an architecture firm. I am a quality proofreader, as well as diligent, reliable, and easy to work with. Thank you for your consideration! less
