Why Me?

I have worked as a professional magazine, website, and journal editor since 2006. I hold a BA and MFA in English disciplines. I have undergraduate classroom and one-on-one teaching experience in fiction writing, intro to creative writing, literature, and first-year composition.

I also am easy to work with, considerate, and professional without being bland and stuffy. You can expect prompt responses and clear communication. With me, you’ll never wonder when or if you’ll hear back, and you’ll be consistently apprised of your project’s progress toward deadlines and due dates you can depend on.

Furthermore, I have worked from every seat in myriad publishing projects and understand the needs, demands, and desires of every task. I pride myself in anticipating client needs and working at every step to ensure my jobs are easier simply by having me on the team.
