— Emily Rafalik, Monotype
“[Nina] is a born copyeditor with laser vision for the right syntax, grammar, verb agreement, and simple clarity of thought. When proofreading my recently completed book manuscript, [Nina] made dozens of unsolicited copyedits on several chapters. They were so insightful, precise, and often brilliant that I was forced to make many more (valuable) changes than I had intended. She spotted a number of substantive and grammatical issues in my text that, as the author of 12-plus books of nonfiction, simply had not occurred to me. I highly recommend her as a copyeditor!”

I highly recommend her for any editing projects and will continue to reach out to her for future support!”
