As an editor, she acquired Tom Clancy’s first novel, The Hunt for Red October. Her distinguished client list includes nationally prominent writers, New York Times bestselling authors, and prize-winning historians and journalists.

She is particularly interested in academic writers that are ready to move over to a more popular writing. For fiction, she is simply interested in great storytelling, especially in an historical context.
