After the death of my brother in 2022, I decided to honor his memory by writing the book he had wished to publish. Using his notes, photographs, messages, and other materials, I reconstructed the kayak journey he undertook and crafted it into a non-fiction narrative. "Moderate Becoming Good Later" was published by Hachette in June 2023 and currently holds a 4.7 rating on Amazon.Since then, I have combined my passion for writing with my experience and knowledge in business to provide high-quality editing and writing services for academic texts.
