Hi there!

I'm Ang Rivas.

Now you know a word nerd with a passion for design.

 

How I Can Help

I want to do it all! I focus on writing (primarily ghost writing for blogs), editing (proofreading and copy editing), and presentation design. I also dabble in graphic design (think save-the-date cards and wedding invitations).

The rates below are a starting point for discussion. A double-spaced page is usually about 250 words.

 

  • Writing - $50 per 1,000 words

    • you give me a topic and/or bullet points and I make magic happen

  • Proofreading - $3 per double-spaced page

    • final check for spelling, grammar, and punctuation

    • includes a marked-up and final version of the document

  • Copy Editing - $4 per double-spaced page

    • in addition to proofreading basics, I will look at your style, clarity, and word choices and make recommendations

    • includes a marked-up and final version of the document

  • Substantive Editing - $7 per double-spaced page

    • in addition to copyediting, I will complete an in-depth look at the flow, overall style, and transitions

    • includes a marked-up and final version of the document

  • Presentation Design - $25 for up to 5 slides

    • based on content you provide

    • up to 2 revisions

    • includes source file: ppt, keynote, and prezi

  • Résumé Review - $75

    • includes a marked-up copy with suggestions for content and formatting of an existing resume

    • includes clean PDF reflecting suggested changes

    • can be optimized for use with Applicant Tracking System (ATS)

    • targeted cover letter can be added for $30

Resume

I’m seeking opportunities where I can utilize my skills to significantly impact an organization or individual’s success through communication, collaboration, continuous improvement, and the thoughtful application of technology.

You Didn’t Hear it From Me

Ang helped replicate a low-res mock up of a save the date design that I created on an app. She was fast, responsive, and precise in following all of my design requests. Her pricing is superb and quality of work is excellent!
