About Me
I worked at Macmillan Education for five years; starting as an Editorial Coordinator, then moving on to Managing Editor, then Senior Managing Editor. In these roles, I was an editorial project manager for ELT print and digital components. Prior to this, I was at Taylor & Francis for nearly two years, working as a Production Editor responsible for a large list of UK and US Education and Psychology textbooks. My in-house publishing experience has given me a wealth of expertise in editorial processes. I have now worked as a freelancer editor for over five years. As of December 2020, I am working towards an MA in TESOL at the University of Birmingham.
