Rick Kughen - Editor

While at Pearson Education, I acquired and developed hundreds of books on a wide range of topics, including technology and business. I was responsible for managing each project from contract signing, content acquisition, development, and publication.

As a senior development editor, I was responsible for developing multiple projects each year, working closely with the authors and other editors to produce tight and timely manuscripts.

I was a beat reporter for this mid-sized newspaper, where I covered the police beat. Also, I was a weekly columnist.
