Transcription Services

I produce, proofread, and edit transcripts. The files I work with include in-depth interviews, market research focus groups, phone interviews, scholarly lectures, social awareness groups. I keep only one client, who is wonderful to work with. At this time, I am available to her for last-minute and overflow work when she has a sudden onslaught and not enough transcriptionists.
