Over the course of this fellowship, I will be expanding research into rural local governance with a particular focus on mining and its influence on local politics.

I have edited various academic outputs (PhD dissertations, journal articles and book proposals), all of which have been published successfully. I undertake detailed proof-reading, grammar fixes, 'flow' edits and ensure adherence to stylistic conventions (including reference styles). I have worked on writing across various disciplines, including medical law, sociology, political science and history. I have also edited several works of fiction which have gone through to publication. I offer rapid turn-around times. Testimonials available on request.
