Editorial Portfolio

There's nothing I love more than editing a book-length manuscript, especially if I can collaborate directly with the author to make their book the best it can be. Just look at all these great, diverse books I’ve had the privilege of working on!

I can't share it publicly, but please contact me for samples of my corporate writing/editing work.
