“Christy is able to turn around challenging copy efficiently when up against tight deadlines. Her approach is professional and I am always confident that any articles I send her way will be returned in good time and much improved.”
Julie Smith, editor, British Journal of Nursing

“Christy has a unique skill set: an excellent understanding of complex clinical subject matter coupled with phenomenal subbing expertise. We deal with complicated and academic topics and ideas that can be hard to explain or edit down clearly, yet week after week Christy achieves this with aplomb. She works on very technical copy with speed and efficiency, while never sacrificing accuracy. I would thoroughly recommend Christy to anyone in need of an editor who is super fast who not only can deal with but also relishes working on difficult subjects.”
Jenni Middleton, editor, Nursing Times

“I have always found Christy to be a fast, thoughtful and accurate subeditor. She knows her stuff with technology and can help out on technical problems. And she asks the reporters the right questions.”
Rod George, Metal Bulletin

“Many thanks for your excellent work covering for me. I came back to a very calm and relaxed work environment and your work was of a very high standard. I will be sure to use your services in the future and recommend you to other departments within Nature.”
Jacquie Limb, Nature Cell Biology
