Professional editor and translator with 33 years of experience in converting complex ideas into documents, presentations, texts, tables, figures, and illustrations.

Published author in academic outlets and had spearheaded the editing and print production processes of three academic books.

Trained by Lockheed veteran of 15 years who served NASA, I've also been a competent technical writer since 1999. Being bred second-hand on the knees of NASA, I take documentation to the next level, adding both depth and breadth, significantly enhancing clarity and ease of flow..
Bringing to the table a strong scientific and technical background ensures:
• Optimal formatting, including journal-specific requirements using customized document styles
Additional services:
I summarize scientific studies. Published works are summarized for key point, synopsis, or review, whether for reporting or marketing purposes. Summaries may have a technical nature, such as those required by the healthcare basket (the basket of all services, medications, supplies and medical equipment to which insured citizens are entitled to receive by law in Israel); or they may stress innovation and applicability to daily life, such as those required for marketing purposes by science-based organizations and professionals.
I tutor Ph.D. students in academic writing. Tutoring advances critical reading of background scientific literature as students seek to uncover the knowledge gap that drives their research. It also helps generate insights into existing or newly processed data. As a result, students are better equipped to describe their research accurately, defend their work, and pass review at minimum iterations.
