About Rebecca

Rebecca is a lifelong lover of the written word. Too often, ideas are discounted or ignored because the writing requires too much effort from the reader to disentangle. Otherwise-brilliant work is needlessly lost. She loves language and how we use these combinations of symbols and sounds to lift an idea or an image out of one head and deposit it in another.
​
Rebecca earned a B.A. in English and Spanish with a minor in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) in 2006 and spent her junior year abroad at the University of Barcelona. Then, after graduation, she spent three years in a small indigenous village in Panama as a Peace Corps Volunteer.

After her return to the US, she returned to her studies, earned her copyediting certificate from the University of California San Diego, and started her copyediting business. She now works as a freelance editor and is a member of ACES (the American Copy Editors Society).

About Oakdale

Oakdale Farms was the name of the family farm where my dad grew up in rural Missouri. There's a whole lot more to the story, but I'm still compiling the family history. So, stay tuned for more if that kind of thing piques your interest!
