Overview
I am an experienced academic editor in the humanities and social sciences. I have an extensive background in acquiring monographs, edited collections, handbooks and other reference works, as well as crossover trade titles for a number of academic publishers in the US and Europe. My former employers include Cambridge University Press, Palgrave Macmillan, and Routledge.
I am always looking for well-crafted, thoughtful, engaging narratives that are well-researched and insightful. I especially love working with first-time authors. I specialize in reviewing proposal materials and editorial assessments of manuscript projects and I am eager to help you find a great home for your academic title. I am also available for proofreading and manuscript development.

Digging through archives! Looking through gems of primary source historical material for researchers and students.
Palgrave Macmillan
At Palgrave, I was the New York-based history editor. I acquired across a range of subdisciplines in history, including American, transnational, the history of science and technology, and history and area studies.
Springer Science and Business Media
At Springer, I acquired mathematics and statistics titles and learned more about harmonic analysis than I ever expected. And it's really interesting too!
Cambridge University Press
I was the assistant to the brilliant and inimitable Scott Parris, executive editor for Cambridge's economics list. I learned from the best here to assess and refine fantastic academic work.
