Meet the Lifestyles Editor, Rachel Robles
My name is Rachel Robles, and no, I’m not “from around here.”
Hi, I'm Rachel. I'm an editor, copy editor, writer and journalist.
I love a good deadline and will move mountains to beat it. I'm picky about the details in all the right ways. AP Style maven. Copy-editing goddess; the messier the better. Mad project management skills. Multi-tasker extraordinaire.
About Me
I am a detailed copy editor and writer with 15 years of experience working with large volumes of audience-targeted content, trimming to fit style and grammatical considerations. I am also a collaborative editor devoted to supporting multidisciplinary teams in exceptional content generation. I am known for being a deadline-driven employee with proven reputation for timely project completion.
