Overview
Since 2016, I’ve been acquiring and developing books that teach, inspire, and enrich. I have professional experience in many categories including cooking, science, self-help, design, travel, psychology, how-to, and much more.
I love helping both new and experienced writers find their voice on the page and in the marketplace. I can offer my editorial expertise at any part of your literary journey, including initial ideation, developing a proposal, pitching to agents and publishers, drafting a manuscript, structural editing, final pass editing, and market positioning.
Having worked at small and large presses, I can help you understand and navigate the world of publishing with empathy, patience, encouragement, and—best of all—proven professional experience.
I would love to discuss your passions, goals, and hopes concerning your book. Please don't hesitate to reach out.
