As a publishing professional for more than two decades, I have acquired, developed, and edited more than 200 books in a variety of subjects including business, education, fiction, finance, history, investing, and law.
From book proposal development to acquisitions and program development, and from editing to manuscript development, I work with agents, authors, editors, and publishers to help turn publishing dreams into reality as a publishing adviser, manuscript consultant, editor, and writer.
