A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Natalia Iwanek

Hi there!

I am a Toronto-based freelance copy editor, proofreader, and content writer. 

​

As an editor, I work with a variety of texts, including books, articles, resumes, websites, blogs and more! 

​

As a content writer, my work can be seen in a variety of publications, including Matador Network, The Voice, Passion Passport, The Editors' Weekly, BoldFace, GoNomad, and BootsnAll. I am thrilled to announce that I was recently awarded the Silver prize for one of my Matador Network pieces from the North American Travel Journalists Association.

​

I am a graduate of Simon Fraser University’s Editing Certificate Program and have also attended Ste. Anne’s University, York University, and Athabasca University.

​

I have recently graduated from the Plain Language Certificate program because I am a strong believer in making texts accessible to all. (I am also obviously a proponent of lifelong learning!) :)

​

On a more personal note, I was raised in Toronto and have lived all over Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia, as well as Guatemala, Poland, and Argentina. 

​

My background has allowed me the immense privilege of becoming multilingual. I am a native speaker of English and Ukrainian, with intermediate Spanish skills, and beginner skills in Polish and French. I edit solely in English, but welcome communication in these languages!

My rates depend on the project and type of editing required and are based on industry standards.​
