Lakehill Editing

Welcome

A simple way to engage your reader is to publish clear and consistent material that is accessible and connects with your audience.

While all writers can look over their words and catch errors, it is difficult to be objective about our own writing. Even editors hire editors to improve their copy.

Your writing needs to impress your reader. Refining your copy by engaging a professional means that you and your organization will stand out for all of the right reasons.

An editor is on your side and will work with you to correct errors and polish your words.

About

My name is Karen Smith and my goal is to ensure that your written materials are as clear, correct and consistent as possible.

I graduated from Queen's University with a BA (Honours) in History before working as a legislative editor for a major legal services company. I have an Advanced Diploma in Business Administration (Human Resources) and I have completed editing coursework through Simon Fraser University. I enjoy working as a consulting editor based in the beautiful Okanagan Valley, British Columbia.

I am a pre-qualified supplier to the Government of Canada in ProServices Category 10.11, Communications Consultant.

I strongly believe in the value of ongoing professional development and continue to increase my knowledge and skills to better serve my clients. I am a current member of Editors Canada.
