Hannah M.C. – Editor

Academic & nonfiction book editor specialized in poli sci, religion, history, health. Worked at Oxford University Press & Springer Nature.

Overview

I bring nearly a decade of editorial experience with general interest nonfiction and academic books. I worked at Oxford University Press for four years as an Assistant Editor on religion and history books, then for two years at Springer Nature as an Associate Editor on medical titles. Since then, I've worked as a freelance editor on nonfiction books on international relations and health. I earned my master's in international relations at the Fletcher School in 2025.

I specialize in copy editing and developmental editing. I am always thoughtful, thorough, and genuine in my approach to others' writing, and I draw on my experience to provide support and insight into the traditional publishing process. I love talking and working through an author's ideas in order to help them fully realize and communicate the narrative they want to share with their readers. I look forward to hearing more about your project!
