My career in publicity began at Alfred A. Knopf and Pantheon. Following that I oversaw publicity, marketing, social media and membership at Politics & Prose Bookstore while getting an education in what booksellers do so well. Then I was on the PR and communications team at National Geographic and most recently acted as Director of Publicity at Little, Brown.
I have experience with fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and photography books alike. I have worked with academics, Nobel laureates, celebrities, and debut novelists on books that have been Oprah Book Club picks, #1 New York Times bestsellers, Pulitzer Prize winners, and more.
I bring a comprehensive approach, partnering with talent on the public-facing narrative arc, identifying audiences, conversational entry points and key targets, and executing an impactful rollout, including op-ed, essay and excerpt placement, reviews, interviews, and more. I have relationships with national TV, radio, print, and digital media as well as subject-specific outlets, sections and influential freelancers across subject areas. I am always expanding my knowledge and connections base, beginning each campaign with research rather than a previous press plan.
Personally speaking, I am an immigrant and Brooklyn is home.
