My 30-year career is balanced across academic editing and academic research (social
sciences). So, I bring to editing my own substantial experience of both researching and
publishing at the highest levels in my field and applying successfully for competitive and
other research funding. I have held university positions in Australia, Denmark, and Finland.

Academic, especially social sciences and humanities, and public policy, though I have edited across all fields.

Funding applications (e.g. grants, fellowships) and awards, larger texts (e.g. books, edited collections), research papers and reports, theses.

(2000+ citations, h-index 23), and I have received around $1.8m in competitive and other

and student support (6 years). My recent freelance editing projects include:

publication as a book - completed substantive editing for a funding application to the Australian Research
