About Théa

Hello and welcome to my profile!
Passionate about words and images for nearly ten years, I assist authors, publishing houses, and professionals in bringing their editorial projects to fruition. My job is to take care of your writing, from the very first proofread to the final print.

On the editorial side, I intervene to correct, refine, and harmonize your manuscripts, whether they are novels, travel guides, magazines, theses, or business documents. I hunt down typos, correct syntax, and ensure scrupulous adherence to typographical rules, while always preserving your writing style and the essence of your message.

I can also put my graphic design skills to use by laying out and designing your books using Adobe InDesign. In parallel, I create faster but equally polished communication materials such as custom résumés, posters, or business cards.

Rigorous, responsive, and accustomed to remote work, I enjoy building a genuine relationship of trust with the people who entrust me with their projects.
