Freelance fact-checker, transcriber, and researcher | 10 years of experience in historical research

Profile Summary

I am a freelance fact-checker, transcriber, and researcher with a recently-completed PhD in Archaeology from the University of Glasgow. Over the past 10 years, I have gained extensive experience in conducting research into historical and archaeological topics using a wide variety of sources, including online and desk-based research, archival and photographic records, and oral history interviews. My work is highly interdisciplinary and has included research into subjects such as media and entertainment, politics, and sociology. My experience researching, transcribing, and fact-checking in my own work means that I understand the level of quality and detail that you require. I furthermore have extensive experience in completing work to a tight deadline.
