More than ten years of combined work & study experience in writing, reading & editing—working for you.

Special Interests
A little more about melanie…
Writing & editing follows my ventures in academia & education, where I studied, taught, and coached literature & writing. I have additional experience working in corporate atmospheres, indie book & clothing stores, and pet care.
Along the way, as I developed my niche as a freelancer while pursuing diverse interests, I defined my focus subjects as arts & culture, sustainability, eco-consumerism, contemporary spirituality, and holistic health. I’m an advocate for animal welfare and rescue pets.
I live in Santa Fe, New Mexico, United States, and work with people and organizations around the globe.
Growing a culture requires a good storyteller. Changing a culture requires a good editor.
