My experience is primarily academic, with a background in psychology and philosophy, and previous roles in psychology and education.
I am a published author in the fields of public health, education, and medicine, and have produced work for academic journals, the Cancer Council, Cancer Australia, and the Cochrane Collaboration. I have also acted as a visiting scientist at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, a reviewer for the Medical Journal of Australia, and an editor and proofreader for numerous students and academics.
I offer an extensive range of editing services, depending on your requirements, budget, and level of English. At the most basic level, I provide assistance with proofreading, incorporating spelling, punctuation, grammar, and sentence structure. At a more advanced level, I can provide general advice on writing style, tone, paragraph structure, referencing, formatting, and statistics (within the guidelines set by your institution).

After receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Arts English I began my career as a technical writer for corporations involved in design and production of aircraft training equipment, air monitoring equipment, and medical software. I wrote and updated hardware and software user manuals and corporate procedures, tested and documented new features for medical software, and compiled and maintained medical indexes for pharmacology software products.
I transitioned from technical writing to technical editing and worked in the consulting engineering field. Significant contributions for my employers included reducing publication costs by discontinuing print vendor services and assuming in-house responsibility for all aspects of technical manual reproduction, assembly, and distribution. I also designed and applied document templates for hardware and software technical manuals, reports, and corporate procedures.
In search of a change from the corporate world, I signed on as a front desk volunteer for a local public radio station and was eventually hired as staff. Initially my duties involved revising underwriting copy and promos for broadcast, as well as assisting with website content and database records. I was ultimately assigned the position of radio traffic coordinator, responsible for all scheduling of radio traffic orders and inventory management. I retired from broadcasting in 2015.
In the mid-2000s I secured my first freelance assignment, applying publisher’s styles to a draft book manuscript in preparation for submittal. Since then I’ve worked steadily as a dissertation/thesis editor, proofreading, editing, and formatting academic papers for doctoral students. I’ve completed more than 60 projects for students at more than 20 schools across the country.
My volunteer activities in the last 20 years have included billing and data entry for a community radio station, collection management assistance for an independent radio producer and a postgraduate educational institution, and music library assistant/cataloger for various nonprofit groups and public schools.

My name is Rachel Crone, and I am a dissertation writing coach and editor. Over the past two years, I have worked with several Organizational Leadership graduate students who have successfully defended their dissertations. I hope to expand my coaching business, and I would love to create a relationship with Purdue’s graduate programs. Would it be possible to add my name to your list of editing services?
While my background is in History, I have extensive copy-editing experience. I have worked with multiple academic journals as both a peer reviewer and editor, honing my critical thinking skills as well as my attention to grammatical detail. I specialize in the Chicago Manual of Style, but I have also learned APA in-text requirements while working with previous clients. As a coach, I ask writers questions that help them consider how to communicate effectively to diverse audiences.
I specialize in early dissertation work, making sure that the quality of the written document is readable before it gets to the advisor so that the advisor can concentrate on the deeper field-related questions. I have found that this method of coaching also allows the writer to feel more confident about the work that they send to their advisors. As I work through the early drafts, I not only point out grammar and syntax errors but also ask questions as a general reader about the argument and its structure. While I can do proofreading edits, I prefer to work with the writer over multiple drafts to create a trusting relationship and lay the groundwork for a more grammatically and syntactically solid document.
