Biography

I help women experts write and launch bestselling books that educate, entertain, and inspire. Getting your book published is hard. The publishing industry can be complex and exclusive, often leaving talented authors feeling frustrated and undervalued. I believe every voice deserves to be heard, which is why I’ve spent the last 30 years navigating the media and publishing industries and now help people become authors and authors reach their potential. Whether you’re a seasoned author or just starting your writing adventure, you can position yourself and your book to be most visible and influential in your industry.

Passion

Gardening - planting flowers and bushes and seeing them grow. I love that pulling weeds is mesmerizing and somehow counts as exercise.

Origin Story

I started out more than 25 years ago – working in marketing and public relations for major brands – writing and creating multi-million-dollar campaigns for Burt’s Bees, Unilever, The Body Shop, and many others, and presenting 100+ marketing hooks each year to major retailers, sponsors, and media - from Wal-Mart to Nordstrom, Ironman to Adele, Cosmopolitan to Good Morning America, New York Times to CNN… And, I can craft a dozen captivating marketing hooks in less than 5 minutes – for any book, person, or product.
