Amy Lewis

I am a freelance editor who uses a blend of administrative and editorial expertise to help you create engaging content for your business communications. Building relationships is the key to my approach in delivering tailored editing and writing for a variety of project types and subject matters. My 20 years of experience in supporting executives and providing editorial support to businesses makes me unique and able to make a meaningful contribution that makes a difference to you and your business.

I own Eye for Editing and provide freelance editing and writing services to businesses, small and large. Before I opened my doors in 2019 and completed my Editing Certificate Program through Simon Fraser University in 2021, I had a wonderful 20+ year career as an administrative professional working with CEOs, presidents, senior executives, and senior leaders, among other amazing colleagues. I was exposed to a variety of communications and types where I dabbled in editing and writing—some were highly confidential, some were for the public, and some were for employees only. During my workplace experience, I developed lasting relationships with my leaders and coworkers because caring is at the heart of what I do.

I’ve been fortunate to edit and write for small and large companies in these industries: 

• Recreation

• Canadian ski and snowboard

• Food & Beverage

• Engineering

• Health & Wellness

• Dog Daycare

• Property Management

• Non-profit

I’ve provided tailored services in content writing, content auditing, copyediting, proofreading, and content strategy development on a variety of materials including, but not limited to, annual reports, newsletters, policies and procedures, strategic plans, emails, executive summaries, request for tenders, speeches, charitable communications, brochures, trail maps, menus, and websites. Clients and former employers have praised me for my abilities in writing, editing, communication, and anticipation and many have come to rely on me as their trusted collaborator. Here’s what a few of them had to say.

“Amy has been an invaluable contributor to our firm, extending far beyond her exceptional editing abilities. Most notably, Amy’s skills at managing, creating and communicating have been instrumental in the issuing of our annual reports to shareholders and the completion of our ambitious strategic planning exercise…We appreciate Amy’s expertise and have come to rely on her as a trusted collaborator.”

“The cover letter was the keynote message that introduced our 247-page submission to a very large, corporate entity in Australia. [Amy’s] wording set a very professional tone for our entire submission and represented [us] extremely well. [Her] work exceeded expectations.”

“Amy’s systematic approach to editing breaks down the overwhelming task of [website content and client] communications into logical steps all while looking at the content as a whole.”

Whether you’re a business owner who wants to create consistent messaging, a CEO looking to polish those board reports and shareholder communications, a new leader who wants to articulate those great ideas in an employee presentation, or a marketing team member who needs a proofread for that creative piece, I can help you.
