Nancy is an exceptional writer and researcher and I highly recommend her writing and editing services. She has written many articles for inChemistry magazine and is our "go to" person for developing new career descriptions for the ACS College to Career website. I save the most technically challenging assignments for Nancy, knowing that she will provide well-researched, well-written pieces on time and within budget. I love how she can succinctly explain Ph.D. level chemical research to our undergraduates.

Adding Nancy to our publication’s editing pool was the best decision we made! Whether editing journalists or scientists, she breathes life into the dullest prose and detangles knotty scientific explanations in a snap. She quickly learns a publication’s procedures so that she seamlessly integrates into daily workflows. Nancy can work autonomously, take charge of a project, follow complex directions—she tailors her versatile skillset to whatever your publication needs. She gets work done quickly, efficiently, and with extremely high quality. We increased our publishing rate dramatically, thanks to her work. I highly recommend adding her to your team!
