> 20 Jahre (seit 2005)Melissa is a native English speaker from the United States who has spent over 15 years in Germany working with individuals and businesses, students and professors, and scientists and medical doctors to improve the clarity and accuracy of documents for publication. She holds a degree in Spanish Literature with minors in Political Science and Philosophy from Agnes Scott College in Decatur, Georgia, where she received a liberal arts education emphasizing critical thinking, analytical writing, and cross-disciplinary inquiry—skills that taught her how to learn, adapt, and analyze complex information across fields.
While careful of labeling herself a polymath, Melissa’s broad, integrated knowledge base paired with the ability to quickly learn and engage deeply with new subjects enables her to edit across a wide range of fields, including the hard sciences, computer science, history, literature, business, philosophy, medicine, and the arts. Her strong grounding in logic—essential to both academic writing and lifelong learning—enables her to engage with confidence and intellectual rigor with nearly any subject. She excels at identifying logic gaps and factual inconsistencies that go beyond language alone.
A passionate professional editor, Melissa is known for her commitment to clarity, accuracy, and concision. Over her 30-year career, she has also worked in marketing, sales, training, copywriting, political speechwriting, and technical writing.
