MLA because it straightforward and immediately provides the relevant information.
Being an avid reader, I have been editing typos in books since I was a child. When I began studying literature at university, my love for writing and editing developed. I knew I wanted to take it to a professional level, following up with a master's degree and now a doctorate.These days, I can be found writing for a blog I co-founded while simultaneously writing my doctorate thesis and working professionally as an editor. From cereal boxes to manuscripts, I am happiest when I am meticulously improving texts.
I worked in communications for six months with the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), completing tasks ranging from copyediting to writing blogs for the website. I am currently employed as a managing editor for an independent publishing press, Epoch Press Ltd., that puts out three creative non-fiction journals a year. I am also an undergraduate tutor in English literature at the University of Edinburgh.
Proofreading can take a text from informative to being a narrative story. Not only does it make it more enjoyable, but I believe proofreading can make a text more accessible for people from diverse professional backgrounds, allowing for more interdisciplinary collaboration. Additionally, as a detail-oriented person, I am one of the outliers that thoroughly enjoys editing and proofreading citations to perfection.

When I'm not proofreading, I am usually drawing, painting, or cooking.
Before beginning a document, I look at the various headers, which gives me an overview of how the document will develop. Regardless of the length, I work one page at a time, treating each page as an individual document. I proofread and edit the page twice or even thrice, ensuring it is free from errors and as clear as possible before I move on. Finally, when I think I have completed the whole document, that is when I will do a final read-through. No document is complete without that one extra read-through, even when you do not think you need it.
