Professional proofreader/editor
About Me
Hello! My name is Kendra, and I work full time as a publishing coordinator for Liturgical Press on the Saint John's University campus in Collegeville, Minnesota. I have a bachelor's degree in English and journalism, and a master's degree in Rhetoric and Writing Studies. Previous to my current position, I worked as a newspaper reporter and editor, a retail account manager, and a jewelry sales expert. But I've been editing and proofreading my entire life, and my true passion is perfecting and crafting sentences.
Outside of editing and work, my favorite things are books, movies, bowling, golf, travel, and food. I'm also really into history and genealogy, and am part of two historical genealogical societies (I can trace my ancestry back to the Mayflower, 17th century Scotland, and an English bishop who was martyred in 1555). My husband and I also enjoy kayaking, hiking, cycling, playing board games, and camping. We have a chocolate lab named Neelix and an orange tabby named Jadzia. Yes, their names are from Star Trek characters (we are huge fans of it and Doctor Who).
I have experience editing and proofreading a variety of content: school papers and dissertations, advertising flyers/posts, websites, business memos, cover letters, press releases, resumes, books, periodicals, and more.
