Hallie Koontz
As an editor with over 8 years of experience editing academic research papers, I excel at reworking unpolished manuscripts into publishable material. My work as a managing editor and department lead has ensured the timely publication of research in the fields of prosthodontics, restorative dentistry, and oral and facial pain. My primary responsibility as an editor is to ensure that research scheduled for journal publication is clean, clear, and concise, which involves correcting spelling and grammatical errors, checking consistency of any tables and figures, and editing content in accordance with house style guides, particularly AMA style. Skills I have learned and developed over my career include content editing and proofreading, long-term project planning, and managing production schedules, workflow, and staff. Additional experience assisting authors with submission and peer review has also given me the ability to recognize and implement quality standards in academic and scientific publishing.
