About me
I’m an editor with 25 years of experience shaping nonfiction books for publishers.
I specialize in bringing clarity and cohesion to manuscripts—organizing ideas so they flow logically and refining language so it reads naturally—whether that means overhauling a rough first draft or fine-tuning a nearly finished one. I’ve directed the full editorial life cycle for more than 500 titles, overseeing 20 or more projects simultaneously—and I’ve never missed a deadline. Publishers hire me because they know they won’t have to worry.
I’ve worked with a range of publishers, including John Wiley & Sons, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, McGraw-Hill, Peachpit Press, and Adobe Press. My projects have spanned everything from technology and software to cooking, health and wellness, travel, and more. I’ve worked on established series such as For Dummies, CliffsNotes, and Frommer’s; branded lines including Webster’s New World and Betty Crocker; and numerous stand-alone titles.
Based in Portland, Oregon, I work remotely with publishers across the U.S. and beyond.
