Overview
I have a strong passion for, and many years of experience, creating book interiors for various genres. So much so, that I recently co-founded an independent book publishing company and held the position of Creative Director. My job was to manage the customer experience of all authors, coordinate projects with our team of editors and designers, as well as to format the majority of book interiors that we published.Before starting my own publishing company, I worked as a Design Coordinator with Amazon's CreateSpace for three years. My experience with this company helped me to gain an incredible amount of knowledge in the publishing industry and it's where I fell in love with the process and art of creating a book.
