Overview
During the remainder of the 2025 summer and autumn, I have a full schedule. If you have a project that you'd like to collaborate on and are able to begin our work together in December, please reach out. If not, I wish you great success on your book.
With more than twelve years experience as an educator and research scientist, more than twenty-eight as an editor and community leader, and recently, five years as a writer, I bring wide-ranging knowledge and a well honed set of skills to every project. My passion is engaging people in the beauty and creativity of human endeavors, especially science. I love to help authors marry their text and art so that the two complement one another beautifully.
My clients over the years include WW Norton, WH Freeman/Macmillan, Oxford University Press, Johns Hopkins University Press, MIT Press, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Garland Science, Roberts & Company, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, and multiple satisfied authors who contacted me through Reedsy and elsewhere.
I am an avid reader of science fiction, general interest science, urban planning, and history. I raise Newfoundlands, love to cook and bake, especially bread, and have begun tackling the world of woodworking.
Whether you are working on a book about science, medicine, dogs, cooking, local government, land use, or many other topics, it would be my pleasure to help you create an amazing book.
