Overview
I was involved in book creation from concept to print, producing marketing material in the concept stage, researching and hiring authors, editors, and proofreaders, and then managing the project of the book through the production stage.
I have a good knowledge of Adobe InDesign, Microsoft Office, and Google Docs/Sheets.
After five years at DK I decided to go on an adventure and moved to New Zealand (exploring a large chunk of South America en route). Although I now have a full-time job in software development, I'm able to take up small proofreading jobs in my spare time.

I worked on a variety of books mostly within the lifestyle remit – gardening, food and drink, health and wellbeing. Projects I led include Veg in One Bed and Grow Food for Free (Huw Richards), How Not to Kill Your Houseplant (Veronica Peerless), World Whisky (Gavin Smith), Home Brew Beer (Greg Hughes), and The Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine (Andrew Chevallier).
