Overview
After many years in-house, beginning at HarperCollins, I am now a freelance developmental editor, proofreader, and writing coach. I work on everything from picture books to middle grade to ya to adult. I am a strong line-editor and also love brainstorming the bigger ideas together. I enjoy working with a variety of authors at different stages of their careers, from debut novels to award winners and bestsellers.
I can help with every level of editing, from assessments to developmental edits with margin notes to complete line-edits as well as query letters and synopses. I often end up working with my authors on multiple projects over time, and it is wonderful to help writers grow and achieve their goals.
