Charli K Elder
Writer + Editor
I write about adventure sports, science, and the people who work at the edges of both. I’ve reported from rivers, labs, and newsrooms for national publications, co-authored federal research, and edited teams of 30+ writers. I also help other writers sharpen their work through developmental and line editing.

Editing
Developmental and line editing for writers, publications, and organizations. I’ve managed editorial teams of 30+ contributors and built content strategies from the ground up.
