Professional Experience
I am a San Francisco Bay Area-based independent writer and editor--formerly of HarperCollins (where, until I went rogue in 2014, I was an executive editor) and Random House--with a penchant for the outdoors, sports, and samurai movies and a martially tuned perspective. My experience is in manuscript analysis, book doctoring, writing proposals, and ghostwrit...(boo), and I'm also extremely happy to contribute articles of general interest. With a journalism degree from NYU, and having worked as an editor or agent with authors as diverse as singer-songwriter Willie Nelson, football great Jerry Rice, TOMS Shoes' Blake Mycoskie, mixed martial artist Georges St. Pierre, fashion icon Lauren Conrad, and comediennes Rachel Shukert and Laurie Notaro, I am an egghead of the world. Thanks so much for your considering me!
