Can you proofread transcripts even if you live outside of the US?

Kerry Walters, a UK mom and successful transcript proofreader, says YES!

Join Kerry in this episode as we talk about working for US clients while living in the UK!

And beyond that, Kerry shares
– her transition from full-time work to general editing and proofreading and then to transcript proofreading
– working with a big time zone difference
– the power that comes from stepping outside of your comfort zone
– the benefits transcript proofreading has been for her mental health
– and the flexibility and freedom it has given her to be there for her family.
