2. Portfolio: Editing

NOTE: Because nearly every document I edit is confidential to my clients and can't be shared (and I will treat your documents with the same confidentiality), only a few early examples are given here, not complete documents. (Click on the image to open the file [if available] or to see more detail.)

The exceptions are these publicly available documents:

• November 2022: Managing Survival Craft Operations at Offshore Facilities. My role on this document was to pull together various information from around the world, create the initial document following Safer Together's format, make changes over several months based on reviews from stakeholder groups, and edit the final document.
• December 2023: Geology, soils and climate of Western Australia's wine regions, a 360p document for a Western Australian government department (it's a nearly 30 MB PDF download from that page, which is why I haven't linked to it directly). If you want to see how I edited it, these links show screenshots of a page of the original document, the same page during the editing process, and what was finally printed. I found this document fascinating to edit for several reasons:
  • I grew up and have lived in several of the wine regions discussed: specifically Peel, Geographe, Swan Valley, and Blackwood Valley.
  • I like wine, particularly full-bodied reds, so it was interesting to see what combination of characteristics were the best for growing these types of grapes.
  • When I was a kid, I used to play and ride my bike on the 'ferruginous nodules and pisoliths' mentioned. It was nice to know that the gravels that caused such grief to my knees when I skidded off my bike have a name :-) Pisoliths, indeed!
