Sophie worked for Dragonfly for about 3 years as a medical and technical editor. She always displayed exemplary work. We could count on her to provide precise, thoughtful editing and to handle the projects she was given with care. We even tried to tempt Sophie with a full-time position at Dragonfly, but to her credit, she maintained focus on her consulting career. We are wishing Sophie the best of luck in her next adventures!

I have known Sophie for years now, not only here on LinkedIn discussing federal opportunities for Women Owned Small Businesses, but through the Chicago artistic community as well. She’s one of the best and I know if you considered engaging with her in a business opportunity, she’ll be one of the best writers/editors you’ve ever hired. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me here on LI for a personal recommendation on Sophie Michals. It would be my honor.

Sophie makes managing editorial projects look easy, responding to questions about minute style issues while juggling moving deadlines, changing deliverables, and multiple editors with different schedules. I’ve had the pleasure of working on several projects with her since mid-2017. Sophie has a keen eye for detail and a knack for clear language. As a project manager, she is organized, responsive, and personable. What more could you want for your editing project?

We truly appreciate your skillful edits over a broad range of document types and your flexibility in fitting the work into your schedule. We’re so glad you joined our consultant pool and look forward to sending more work in the future.

I was having trouble writing an accurate, concise, well-written argument for a proposal. I connected with Sophie on LinkedIn after she commented on one of my articles and hired her to edit and rewrite my proposal. It’s too early to measure results, but she did excellent work. I recommend her to anyone who needs help writing grants, proposals, or articles.

If you’ve followed Sophie for any period of time you would know that she puts out the most interesting writing tips EVER!

With English not my first language it is so enlightening to know that I have Sophie to educate me and to keep me on the straight and narrow of English writing.

I may not do a lot of business writings, but I want to always make sure that what I put out there is not filled with errors.

She’s worth following! Do it now! Your business will love you for it.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Sophie on several large-scale projects. Sophie is quick to respond to requests, develop content delivery schedules, share her technical knowledge and her flexibility also allows her to quickly switch tactics if a deadline changes. Her number one goal is delivering the highest quality work for our clients. I have gotten to know Sophie quite well and can thoroughly vouch for her character and abilities. 

I don’t know Sophie personally, but I look for her posts because she always teaches me something with them. Her writing tips are personal and applicable and something every person who works with words should seek out. The writing world is made better because Sophie and her vast knowledge of language are in it. 

Sophie is a language professional that constantly posts helpful writing-related advice on Linkedin. Her insights into the ins and outs of English language show not only a thorough command of English grammar and writing conventions, but also recommend her as a language coach. Contact Sophie if your corporate writing needs polishing in terms of overall consistency and tone. 

Having only worked with Sophie for a period of a few months, it quickly became clear to me what caliber of worker I was dealing with. WOW, just WOW. Sophie juggled multiple projects simultaneously, met deadline after deadline, and all the while kept a bionic eagle-eye out to prevent any errors from escaping, or inconsistency from seeing the light of day. 

Sophie is an incredible technical writer. I’ve never had a conversation with her that didn’t make me think about the purpose of the words I put on the page for my business (and my clients’). All of her content provides actionable advice that helps business owners understand the value of style and make their communications professional and consistent. I use info from her Essential Guide to Redundant and Unnecessary Phrases more than I ever expected to need it! 

When I worked with Sophie, she treated teammates and coworkers like clients—always striving to add value to every interaction and usually succeeding. Her encyclopedic grasp of language and style guide structure is only eclipsed by her client service chops. I would not hesitate to recommend her in any capacity. I look forward to any opportunity to work with her in the future, and so should you.  

Sophie is very good at recognizing where I’m struggling with my writing, and her alternative phrasing clearly expresses the point I was trying to make, yet more eloquently. She pushes me to think beyond my writing into what my audiences might need to know and how to express those ideas.

I highly recommend Sophie to anyone who writes or manages content on their web pages, white papers, and publications.

Sophie has improved every piece of copy I’ve ever given her to review. She offers suggestions, options and corrections that save great embarrassment and expensive reprints.

Best of all, while she knows all the rules, she focuses on the quality of the communication rather than grammatical dogma.

The only way I could speak better of her, is if I asked her to edit what I say.
