Des Devlin

Welcome. I provide professional copy-editing and proofreading services to higher degree research students and academics.

I assist with doctoral theses and exegeses, journal articles, books and reports across a variety of fields.

I am a professional member of the Institute of Professional Editors and have been involved in many aspects of academic publishing and professional media production, including proofreading, copy-editing, indexing, news sub-editing, archives development, and photographic and video production.

My doctoral study focused on research methods in visual ethnography and post/subcultural theory, and my masters research was in the area of ethics and legal studies with a media focus.

Contact me via email to discuss your requirements.
