Grant Proposal Editing
Clarity. Accuracy. Standards.
Since 2008, I have edited grant proposals across disciplines, with a focus on
clear articulation of aims, sound structure, appropriate academic tone, and
strict adherence to funder and institutional requirements.
What This Service Covers
I edit grant proposals for clarity, coherence, and completeness. I assess whether objectives are clearly stated, whether supporting sections communicate their purpose, and whether the proposal presents a consistent narrative from start to finish.
I focus on how the grant proposal reads to reviewers who assess rigor and feasibility, ensuring that objectives, methods, timelines, and budget narratives are presented clearly and consistently across the submission.
How I Work
I review grant proposals with attention to structure, logic, and internal consistency across sections. I identify gaps in explanation, unclear rationale, missing connections between narrative and technical components, and weaknesses in presentation that distract from the proposed work.
I edit with reviewer expectations in mind, shaping the writing so complex projects, including those with multimillion-dollar budgets, come through clearly under formal review.
Submission Requirements and Formatting
I edit grant proposals to align with the submission instructions issued by the funding body and institution. This includes section structure, headings, formatting, page limits, and consistency across all required components.
My focus is on ensuring that the proposal follows stated requirements precisely and presents a clear, professional document suitable for formal review.

Who You’ll Be Working With
Since 2008, I have edited grant proposals across disciplines and funding contexts. I bring judgment shaped by long experience reviewing grant proposals that must withstand detailed, criteria-driven evaluation.
Before founding my editing practice, I served as an English-language editor at UNESCO’s headquarters in Paris, editing academic and technical documents for international audiences.
