An expert researcher and copy editor, Garet always enjoys an editing challenge. A serious academic since her youth, Garet has honed her research skills working with large institutions as well as many local campaigns over the last 20 years. 

As one of the strongest copy editors available, Garet is always happy to explain correct comma usage. She can turn around a text revision within minutes (insert comma) ensuring that grammar and facts are correct (another comma) while also editing for the appropriate audience and platform.

A California native, Garet briefly worked on the east coast before returning to the City of Angeles (comma) yet remains a loyal UCONN Husky fan.
