Now more than ever, companies are opting to outsource work rather than keep full-time employees in the office. I’m here to help with a variety of one-off and long-term tasks for individuals and organizations.
I am professional, detail-oriented, and deadline-focused, and will handle your requests with respect and urgency. I offer virtual assistant, copywriting/proofreading, and digital marketing services.
For inquiries, please email me at ACarringtonShaw@gmail.com. Full resume, rates, and references available upon request.

Need a Copywriter or Proofreader?
As a lifelong grammar aficionado with a degree in English, I guarantee top-notch results in a large variety of projects. I can switch between styles to accommodate your needs. (I love my Oxford comma, for instance, but will put that love aside to edit your AP-style document.)
Notably, I proofread a published, full-length book and edited the third edition of The History of Murray Hill for the Murray Hill Preservation Association.
I’ll work with you to achieve exactly the results you need. Whether that’s proofreading, ghostwriting, or some combination of those, I will take it and run with it. BONUS: I can also manage some light image editing for your blog or other visual creations.
Areas of expertise include, but are not limited to:
- full-length novels and non-fiction books
- blog articles
- emails
- newsletters
- website content and product descriptions
- speeches
- essays
As a writer myself, I understand the passion and hard work that goes into a writing project, and I will be both sensitive and straightforward with my suggestions for your material. I look forward to the opportunity to put my metaphorical red pen to your project!
