Content editor, style wrangler, and grammar geek with 13 years of experience at a major NYC publisher.
I developed top-selling books and digital tools on writing, rhetoric, and style, from traditional handbooks to two editions of the only comic-book composition text. Working with authors to help translate their vision into student-friendly texts, I had hands-on involvement in every stage of the process, from planning and drafting to editing and revising, from creating design memos and illustration plans to writing marketing copy.
As an independent contractor, I worked on nonfiction manuscripts on subjects ranging from religion and political science to real estate and food safety. For each manuscript, I evaluated and edited the content and created an editorial letter outlining possible future revisions.
I edit nonfiction content for publishers and others; create ancillary texts, video scripts, and assessments for secondary and higher education markets; and do art research and fact-checking.
