Overview
I've worked on trade and academic titles, and have a deep understanding of the audience needs for many markets. I'm experienced with all phases of editorial work: developmental editing, copyediting, proofreading, and project management. I've worked on technical and academic subjects, and memoirs. I strive to give the same care and attention to working with authors as I do to managing manuscript; bringing out the best qualities in either requires an ability to see and promote those qualities, and to do so with as much respect and as little ego as possible.
