Hi, I’m Rachel Porter, a native Californian living in the Netherlands.

I have a background in history and in baking and a lifelong passion for reading. I have been editing non-fiction material for 10+ years, with a special emphasis on cookbook and recipe editing. I offer varying levels of support, from copy editing to developmental editing.

Each edit I make is driven by the desire to maintain the integrity of your message while enhancing its impact. Your words deserve to be presented flawlessly, and I’m here to make that a reality.

I work with clients based in the United States, the Netherlands, and in Europe.

Copyediting certificate, UCSD Extension
BA in history, Phi Beta Kappa, with Honors, UC Berkeley
Baking and pastry certificate, California Culinary Academy
