Overview
After wondering what I wanted to be when I grew up, I discovered publishing. I started my career at Palgrave Macmillan in the marketing department and never looked back! Since then, I have had experience in publishing houses including I.B.Tauris and DK. Most recently I have worked at The London Book Fair to get a better picture of the industry as a whole and broaden my experience in marketing. I am now Marketing Manager for Reaktion Books. My specialism is Trade non-fiction, although I have experience with fiction (not Children's). I am an expert at social media comms and event management.
