Meet the Editor
Hello! I'm Hannah Streetman (she/her), founder of Dingbat Editing and lifelong book nerd.
My editing work focuses on the big picture through developmental editing, but I also love zooming in at the line level to polish language until it shines. I learned the craft of editing by apprenticing with an expert editor, completing a professional editing certificate and a B.A. in creative writing, and attending the Columbia Publishing Course. After a decade of part-time freelance editing—and a range of roles across the publishing and nonprofit worlds—I launched Dingbat Editing as my full-time business in fall 2025.
Originally from outside of Denver, I now live near Seattle, where I’m often found combing thrift shops for vintage grammar guides, exploring a park, or trying to catch a glimpse of an orca fin in the Puget Sound. The photos on this website are taken from my adventures around the PNW.
