I am a Certified Mentor at SCORE with deep experience in book publishing and related industries. I specialize in collaborating with clients who are interested in writing and publishing a book (traditionally or self-published), finding an agent, submitting a book to a publisher for consideration, starting and operating a publishing company and anything related to physical and digital book formats and related websites. I have an extensive understanding of the commercial aspects of the book industry and how books are bought and sold. I can help you evaluate your new project and assist with putting it into action. I can also provide specific advice on the management and improvement of your existing projects. If you need assistance with building an individual book or publishing related business plan, I can help. If you need coaching on customer/client relations, negotiation tips, strategy feedback, help with business-to-business outreach, or distribution/logistics and supply chain solutions I am here to guide you along the way. I am a detailed planner and strategic thinker with a proven history of creating, managing, and executing innovative programs. I genuinely enjoy collaboration and helping people grow. I am patient and open-minded yet also results and goal oriented. I want to help you succeed.
