I have more than 15 years publishing experience working with books, magazines, and web content. I've worked with Penguin Random House, Scholastic, Simon & Schuster, Hachette, Nickelodeon, Disney, and more. I offer all levels of editing, proofreading, and writing coaching.
Besides chocolate and scratching puppies behind their ears, my favorite things are helping authors find their aha moments; teaching writers to focus on what is relevant to their audience; and collaborating to identify the right way to say precisely what they mean in a way most easily understood by the reader.
My goal is to help authors be their most eloquent selves.
