About me
I am a consultant who advises companies on strategies for maximizing reach and revenue generated from their publishing programs, often in the area of rights and royalties. My clients include: IEEE, The Abu Dhabi International Book Fair, Highlights for Children, Kaplan DeFiore Agency, Island Press, and many others. Prior to starting my business in 2016, I was Vice President, Director, Global Rights, with Wiley Inc., where I led an international team of sales, marketing, and operations professionals. I also worked Random House/Fodor’s Travel, Hyperion/Disney, and Farrar, Straus & Giroux, which gave me opportunities to successfully negotiate and execute print and digital licensing agreements with a broad spectrum of global companies. I am also the head of the Rights Committee for the Book Industry Study Group, where we develop, maintain and advocate for industry-wide best practices and standards designed to support rights people in all areas and improve processes across the landscape of publishing.
