From concept development through to final delivery, I work with experienced designers to produce books to the highest standard. I specialise in children’s non-fiction and picture books working with authors and illustrators from around the world.

For any new title or series, I work closely with publishers to develop project concepts, and have a wide range of contacts to commission new authors or illustrators, if required. I develop a close working relationship with authors to develop their manuscript and brief illustrators supporting their development from storyboards to print-ready publications. I am able to provide a critical but creative eye to work alongside publishers to develop their list.

Back list and international markets
I can refresh a backlist working with existing titles to ensure they speak to new audiences. I also work with international publishers providing consultancy and editorial advice on adapting books for UK and North American audiences.
