Consulting Services

TL;DR – I LIKE WORKING WITH THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

About Me

I have over 12 years of experience writing and editing everything from grant proposals to training documentation to social media/website copy. Mainly, I enjoy working with organizations and people that do meaningful work.

I have a degree in Management Information Systems with additional certifications and coursework in Proposal Writing & Grant Management and TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language).

In my spare time, you’ll find me obsessing over my dogs, traveling the world, and reading way too much fiction.

Writing

As a prior Senior Grants Officer, I have over 5 years of experience writing grants, managing development calendars, reviewing proposals, and creating comprehensive program reports. In addition, I have extensive technology experience with prior roles at Google and a background in Information Systems. I have found that this technology background greatly assists in the organization and management aspects that grants management entails. 

My style is thorough, detail oriented, and efficient. Also: I’m a firm believer in the Oxford comma.

I’m available to help:

  • Write corporate, foundation, and government grant proposals ($75/hour)
  • Help nonprofits create efficient, organized systems to scale proposal writing and reporting capabilities with the creation of a bank of necessary narratives and attachments ($2500 flat rate)
  • Review, copyedit, and provide feedback for existing proposals ($50/hour)

Editing

In addition to editing grant related documents, I’m available to help edit most anything you can come up with such as:

  • Resumes and cover letters
  • Website copy
  • Training documentation
  • Video captions (especially English captions for foreign language videos)

Let’s practice English together!

As a TEFL certified instructor and writer, I love to help students hone their English skills.

Services Offered:

  • Conversational English practice sessions
  • Written English feedback
  • Accent and pronunciation coaching
  • For YouTubers/Vloggers: Proofreading + coaching on English video captions/subs

“I was impressed by Meera’s efficiency and professionalism – she was exceptionally talented at identifying how long a given task would take, breaking it down into its constituent parts, and executing exactly on the schedule that she had planned.”
