Lorenzo proofread blog content for me and caught quite a few errors that otherwise might have been embarrassing! He was prompt, communicated clearly, commented tactfully and focused on solutions.
Lorenzo has also been a valuable member of my team. He proofread an anthology of short stories that had been translated from Japanese, and his eye for consistency caught things that had been missed during copyediting.
I'd definitely work with him again.

You can find me on LinkedIn.
Technically I exist on other social networks too, but I'm not so social there. How boring.
