Overview
I'm a freelance editor and proofreader with nine years of experience working in publishing, with the last seven years at one of the big five publishers in New York City, Macmillan Publishers. I was trained at Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism specifically in book publishing. Additionally, I've edited a variety of manuscripts across all genres including mystery/thriller, sci-fi, fiction, nonfiction, memoir, self-help, and more. I am an expert in the Chicago Manual of Style and can adapt quickly to any preferred style.
Examples of books I've proofread and provided editorial support for include, but are not limited to:
- The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides (Instant New York Times bestseller)
- The Complete Book of Astrology by Ada Aubin & June Rifkin
- David Rosenfelt novels
- While You Were Out by award-winning journalist Meg Kissinger
- Dominus by Steven Saylor (New York Times bestselling author)
- Running Out of Road by Daniel Friedman (Nominated for an Edgar Award)
- Float Plan by Trish Dollar (A Must-Read for Good Morning America, Oprah Magazine, Buzzfeed, and more)
- Drive-Thru Dreams: A Journey Through the Heart of America's Fast-Food Kingdom by Adam Chandler (A Publishers Weekly Book of the Week)
*I also have experience editing and proofing graphic novels, indexing, and more.
