    I am a reader, a writer, and a lover of book arts.    Educated as a librarian, I've worked as a database researcher, typesetter and layout artist, business information center manager, and chief information officer. During my career in human resources consulting, I wrote extensively on job search and business topics. ​ Over the last half dozen years, I've self-published my own children’s books as well as novels, memoirs, art books, and family histories for other writers who thrill to see their own work in print. My publishing projects usually take handwritten notes, manuscripts or interviews and marry them to images. My skills include organizing information, editing while preserving the writer's voice, typography, layout and proofreading. ​
