Work experience

De_Gruyter

Developmental Editor and Copyeditor

De Gruyter • Freelance

Aug 2017 - Present • 8 yrs 10 mos

I'm a highly experienced and trusted nonfiction editor helping business leaders, consultants, entrepreneurs, and academics transform promising, messy drafts into highly engaging books. I collaborate closely with writers to strengthen their story arc and bring their unique perspective into sharper focus, producing highly engaging content that connects with their readers and delivers the impact it deserves. I regularly collaborate with DeGruyter and authors on complex long-form projects, ensuring publication-ready manuscripts under tight deadlines. But I am equally comfortable guiding authors along the self-publishing route and have successfully handled projects from outline to polished manuscript to Amazon Kindle publication - with everything else in between.
