Overview
I have years of non-fiction book publishing experience: writing, researching and editing. I am also an author myself. I'm willing to offer my services for any art & design books, or projects in the medical or psychology fields. I recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in The Neuroscience & Psychology of Mental Health with King's College London.
My publishing career was spent at Orbis Publishing, Macmillan (a multi-reference work, The Dictionary of Art) and Phaidon Press, but I've tackled numerous projects as a freelancer. I was asked by Alain de Botton to help him advance a number of book projects for The School of Life, which I did in 2020. I was an author and co-editor for an important textbook for Springer in 2022/3.
My areas of expertise cover arts subjects, as well as medical ones, particularly those related to psychology and neuroscience. I'm dependable, and have a pleasant and cooperative disposition - something most of us consider rather important in a work colleague!
