I just want to give a huge shout out to Tikia Hamilton, the brilliant mind behind Triple Ivy Writing. I worked with her to copy-edit an 80,000 word manuscript. She not only helped me meet my very tight deadline, but she really went above and beyond with her meticulous reading, editing, and writing suggestions. I turned in a much stronger and well-organized book as a result of her careful reading and notes. Plus she included little comments that made me feel like my work was worthy! I highly recommend Dr. Hamilton’s work!

--Amy B., Ph.D.,

Assistant Professor of Gender and Women's Studies, University of Maryland Baltimore County

“Dr. Hamilton's edits have helped me to improve clarity and she has helped to strengthen the impact of my writing. I especially appreciate her ability to work across disciplines."

--Janeria E. Ph.D.,

I really liked your suggestions and I incorporated most of them. I also appreciated the general suggestions you put in the article and the additional tips you included in your email. I will try to keep these tips in mind for future papers!

--Andrea A.,

Assistant Professor, Tufts University


Dr. Hamilton provided me with not just the requested grammatical edits, but also suggested organizational strategies and asked insightful questions about my manuscript.  The article was published with no further corrections from the press.   So appreciative for her sharp eye and timely help.
— K. Parkin, Professor of History and Endowed Chair

“Dr. Hamilton is professional and timely. She has edited two of my works and each time the work has been improved as a result of her feedback. I would use her services again for subsequent works.”

—B.J., Assistant Professor of African American Studies

It was a truly empowering experience working with you. Your editing is so kind and sensitive on one hand, but I also felt like your edits helped my voice be stronger and allowed me to “speak” with more confidence. I’m really grateful for your knowledge and insight. Your encouragement and support made me feel “safe” and understood throughout this process.
— T.K., Lecturer, Women and Gender Studies Department, SFSU


I want to thank you for your highly professional and soulful work. You are a fine historian, a skilled researcher and a gifted writer. And I am very fortunate to know you and to have you working with me on my major writing projects.

—Dr. Johnetta B. Cole, former president, Spelman and Bennett College

“I've engaged Tikia twice to edit papers, and each time she has been efficient and insightful.  My writing is certainly better for having her help."

--Assistant Professor (2019),

University of Iowa

Dr. Hamilton has worked with me on a number of projects, including revising a dissertation chapter for journal publication and a multi-faceted proposal for an high school teaching grant. For this reason I’ll continue to rely on Triple Ivy’s services for line editing and helpful suggestions to improve my writing.

“Triple Ivy developmental editing services were an integral part of my book revisions and publication. Tikia kept my potential reader at the forefront of her advice and guidance. She ensured that I had a structural and organizational flow that allows my reader to maintain a connection to my argument. Her feedbacks were rigorous and generous. She asked tough questions of clarification, but she was also very helpful in talking through larger issues. Experienced book writes will also find that Tikia’s tailored advice is helpful in bringing a book project to its final stages.”

—D. Fernandez, Michigan State University

My book is progressing nicely, due in great part to Dr. Hamilton’s help and guidance. Her comments helped me to overhaul my project, and now it is set for publication. I am happy, happy, happy to shout her praises to anyone!

I've said it before and I'm saying it again: Dr. Tikia K. Hamilton is the best editor out there! She knows how to tighten your prose so that your arguments are cogent. She is worth every penny so reach out to her at Triple Ivy Writing & Educational Solutions, LLC if you need her services. I am a very happy client.

--Crystal Sanders, Associate Professor, Penn State University

Dr. Hamilton worked with me on an NEH fellowship application that required a lengthy book project description and outline. Whether or not I am awarded the fellowship, my book will be much stronger because of her suggestions. I will definitely be using her services again!

“Tikia Hamilton did an amazing job helping me cut a draft article of over 25,00 words down to the required 11,000! That is no easy feat, but Tikia gave me excellent editorial suggestions of what to leave in, take out, and reframe so I could make the necessary cuts. I have already recommended her to others who are looking for an editor.”

—Alison Parker, University of Delaware
