Sarah Jacquier
Sarah Jacquier graduated from Brigham Young University in 2010 with a B.A. in English. However, her favorite classes at BYU were for her editing minor. Sarah took several scholarly editing classes and discovered that it is her favorite type of editing. Sarah’s specialty is scholarly articles. However, she likes to edit just about anything, scholarly or not. She also enjoys indexing and hopes she has a chance to do more of that in the future. Sarah wants to be freelancer who works on many different kinds of editing, layout, and design projects.
Sarah was born in China, and she has loved to travel ever since she was a baby. She hopes to live in many different places around the world; she has already spent several years in different parts of Asia. In her free time, Sarah likes to read, play word games, watch old movies, and play the piano and flute. She currently lives with her husband in California.

Tyler Beckstrom
Since he was a young boy curled up on a couch and reading the latest Star Wars or fantasy novel, Tyler has loved to read. Following that passion, as early as high school he became involved in writing, editing, and publishing a creative writing magazine called Euphony. He went on to receive a BA in English with a minor in editing from Brigham Young University.
While attending school there, he became involved in The Leading Edge journal where he edited, researched, and wrote articles during an internship for the Internet Safety Project (ISP); he has performed a number of freelance proofreading and editing jobs on the side.
While Tyler enjoys the written word, he's also learned design and layout principles and is skilled in Adobe InDesign CS5 and Adobe Photoshop CS3 and CS5. His plans include being a father to his first child (born July 2012), applying to graduate school, and becoming an Instructional Designer.
