Copy Editor | Editorial Production | Christian Publishing

Bringing editorial precision, thoughtful storytelling, and a passion for books to every stage of the publishing process.

EDITING WITH PURPOSE

I'm a publishing and editorial professional with experience in Christian publishing, copyediting, fact-checking, proofreading, and editorial production.

In my current role at the Sunday School Publishing Board, I work with editors and designers to prepare adult curriculum titles for publication, managing projects from manuscript review through layout and final production.

My background in journalism and editorial leadership has taught me to approach every piece of content with curiosity, accuracy, and a critical editorial eye.
