Editor Profile

Greg Hicks

Profile

I’m an academic and technical editor that can offer fast turnaround with in-depth feedback. I specialize in education, biomedical sciences, and clinical studies, but I have edited successful publications across an eclectic range of topics: from Assyriology to computational mathematics, with several places in-between!

I also offer affordable content management and knowledge base development. Can you never find that one PDF that you know you have? Have you been saying “we need a wiki” for several years? Does your organization have tons of great content that never gets used? I can help you make your organization’s content accessible, stylish, and sustainable.
