Hi, I’m Ailene. I am a wife and new mother. I ride motorcycles and I love to read. But, most importantly for the purposes of this page, I am a writer, an editor, and a proofreader.
About six years ago I began writing a book, and it was about the time that I had finished the first draft and began editing it that I realized editing is where my heart lies. It is exhausting work to get your words on paper, but the finesse that can be added by a good edit is satisfying.
Not long after this realization, a writer friend of mine was looking for advanced readers for her debut novel. I gleefully signed up to be a part of the advanced reader team, and after being helpful there, the author asked me to be part of her proofreading team. I jumped on that train and haven’t looked back since.
I attended UC Berkeley Extension where I obtained a certificate in the Professional Sequence in Editing. Now here I am, trying to get an editing business off the ground.
I believe in people, I believe in dreams, and I believe in a good book. Hiring a good editor is expensive, but it is my dream to be an affordable option for writers who are looking to polish their work or self-publish online. I want to help others achieve their dreams.
