Aloha Proofreading
Ann Rasmusson
Aloha!
My proofreading journey started with Caitlin Pyle, of Proofread Anywhere fame. She asked two questions. The first was: “Are you passionate about words and reading?” Well, I certainly knew my answer to that one. The second was: “Are you a word nerd who finds typos everywhere and could correct people’s grammar all day long?” I said, “Wow! How did you know?”
I did indeed pass her exam with flying colors (97%), and I achieved the official Certificate of Excellence from Caitlin Pyle, Executive Chairman and Instructor, BCP Media Inc. (d/b/a Proofread Anywhere)
I’m North Dakota born and raised. Someone once said to me, “You know, they make good people back there.” And I said, “Yes, they sure do!” There’s just one little problem: the winters are brutal, and I’ve never warmed up. I did escape, however, and I’ve had the good fortune to live all over the country—my favorites being Florida, Napa Valley, and especially Hawaii for six consecutive years. That’s why I love all things beach.
I now reside in Washington State, having moved there for my family. (By the way, they make good people everywhere!)
My idea of a good time is to walk six miles and then settle in with a riveting thriller.
I look forward to using my talents and my passion for words to bring your written product to life.
Mahalo,
Ann Rasmusson

Ann is great to work with. She is timely and detail-oriented. This was a breeze on my end, and she did all the “heavy lifting” to make this a readable and perfectly punctuated piece for my blog/website.
