About me

As a Senior Editor at Scholastic and Disney, I worked with numerous award-winning and best-selling authors and illustrators. Now, I use that expertise to help new and established authors realize their visions. Whether you are looking for editorial feedback on a manuscript or need help to further develop an idea, collaborating with authors is my passion. I will provide an honest, constructive, and detailed assessment. Once we have completed our work together, you will have a manuscript that is ready for the next step in the publishing process.
I have worked on both stand-alone books and series, from the fact-based Magic School Bus and Dear America lines at Scholastic to the best-selling “High School Musical” and “Hannah Montana” tie-ins at Disney. I have been lucky enough to personally edit such luminaries as Joanna Cole, Edwidge Danticat, Walter Dean Myers, Mary Pope Osborne, and Cynthia Rylant.
I've received the Golden Kite Editor Award, was a mentor at the Northern New England SCBWI Writers' Retreat, and have spoken at numerous children's literature conferences.
