Beta Reader Group discussion

Hello everyone. It's been a while. Though I wish I had the time and the money to go bigger, I am currently seeking numerous Beta Readers of all types for a relatively brief task:

Dual Citizens (~1,200 words) is the first section of an ambitious ~200k non-fiction WIP codenamed "Project Good", tackling a range of topics from linguistics and philosophy to religion and morality, with the ultimate goal of reconciling all things to the reader. It's been a few years since I had anyone Beta Read my work, and I just need to get outside my head and hear what other people think about it. Your help is greatly appreciated!

For anyone interested, I can share a unique Google Doc of this section along with a link to a survey collecting feedback and payment information. I am looking for as many readers as possible. For these Beta Readings, I ask that you briefly introduce yourself and tell me how much you are seeking. I can easily pay you with Zelle, CashApp, or PayPal. For other payment methods, please discuss in advance.

I will monitor this thread, but my email address is ryancarterfb (at) gmail (dot) com. Feel free to contact me strictly for matters regarding this post. Thank you so much for your time!

I have beta reading, proofreading, and editing experience and have written many book reviews for books on different platforms. I can beta read a book of any length and can work with any book genre. I am hardworking, reliable, responsible, organized, detail oriented and meet deadlines. I am an effective cross functional communicator, rapid and adaptive learner, committed high receiver, skilled collaborator, dynamic solution-oriented professional. I love beta reading, proofreading, editing and writing reviews and look forward to writing yours.
I am interested in your book. It sounds like an amazing story. I am trying to get back into beta reading, proofreading, and editing after a hiatus and this would be a wonderful start. I have experience with a variety of genres and would love to find out if we are a good fit. I have worked with authors on Goodreads, Amazon, and Upwork. I am excited to get started since I love to read and review books. I look forward to hearing from you and wish you all the best in your book's success whether you choose me to work with or not.
Here are my Upwork reviews:
"Melinda delivered excellent work on this project and we enjoyed working with her. Her communication was top-notch, she met all deadlines, and her skills were strong. She adapted and learned whatever had to be learned. At one point we asked for an additional milestone, and she was very forthcoming and happy to meet our new, changing requirements. She was hands-on through the entire process. Her greatest strength has to do with seeing the tiny details, some of which we did not see ourselves. On a personal note, I enjoyed working with her and undoubtedly have additional jobs for her in the future. Don’t hesitate. Hire her!"

"I would work with Melinda again. Her prompt communication, adherence to deadlines, and cooperation was much appreciated, and mark her as a true professional. She's very skilled at what she does, and I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!"

"Great work! Will definitely rehire for future projects requiring reviews."

"Amazing job! Would definitely recommend her!"

"Excellent job"
