Overview
I am a ghostwriter/author of memoirs, business books, and works of politics, history, and art. My resume includes New York Times bestsellers, international bestsellers, and books written specifically for family or business purposes.
My work has been published by Simon & Schuster, St. Martins, HarperCollins, LittleBrown, Broadway Books, Warner Books, and other major publishers.
Think of me as your “confidential pen” who will turn your ideas and experiences into an exciting, touching, thought-provoking book.
I offer bespoke, premium services tailored to your needs, and expect to spend a lot of time working with you on your book.
