Let proofmojo provide a fresh set of eyes and ensure your peace of mind.

I have 25 years of experience in many business settings (from seminaries to ad agencies and everything in between), editing and proofing books, reports, ad copy, newsletters, case studies, research findings, articles, website copy, social media campaigns, auction catalogues, event programs, regulatory filings, marketing collateral, press releases, etc. 

I have also provided reviews of websites for both accuracy and functionality, which is particularly important when your online presence is globally accessible, 24 hours a day.

I can effectively code-switch between American, Canadian, and British English. and can help you adapt your copy for each market. Having experience working with non-native English speakers has afforded me strong skills in identifying – and correcting – common errors in thought translations. 

I ensure rigid compliance with style guides, house style and industry standards. If you are overwhelmed by all of the prescribed rules you need to follow, let me help you comply with accuracy and style!

I couldn’t recommend proofmojo highly enough; I will be a repeat client, for sure. proofmojo helped me with several critical and time-sensitive regulatory submissions and did an amazing, timely and cost-effective job. Jo-Ann provided thorough and exacting technical work on time and on budget, along with top-notch communication and customer service throughout. 

I also appreciated how she helped me better understand my own company’s written style guides and related written conventions. The results and my overall experience with proofmojo exceeded my expectations and underscored to me how much of a beneficial difference Jo-Ann can make to my business.  I am confident she will likewise be a tremendous credit to yours..

Thank you, proofmojo for helping bring out the best in my creative digital project. I am so happy to have worked with you during the process. proofmojo provided incredibly detailed and comprehensive support for my website, social media and media press materials during the lead-up to my creative product launch. I couldn’t have done it without her and am particularly grateful for how her professionalism and attention to many, many details gave me the peace of mind to focus on other aspects of the release project.
