Hi. I’m Sonya.
I’m a nonfiction editor and ghostwriter helping clients craft compelling, cohesive stories — from first draft to publication.
With a critical care nursing background and a faith-based perspective, I approach every project with empathy, insight, and meticulous attention to detail.
I collaborate with authors on a wide variety of writing projects.
My specialty is editing Christian nonfiction.
About Me
When I worked as a nurse in trauma and critical care, I quickly learned to take in large amounts of information, synthesise it, and make life-saving decisions with clarity and concision.
This ability to think both holistically and critically has proved invaluable as I transitioned my career into writing and editing.
I am a contributing writer for Coffee+Crumbs, a literary site for mothers, and my personal essays have also been published elsewhere—both in print and online.
As an editor, my goal is to take a writer’s words and make them stronger. See their ideas and dig deeper. Witness their stories and shape them into something unforgettable.
As in nursing, I believe editing is more than a skill.
It’s an art.
