Publishing Professional

Hi,
here's a bit about me:
With a long-held passion for writing, editing, and research, I earned my Bachelor of Arts in both English and Communication Studies. I completed a publishing internship with Brink Literacy Project and volunteered with the literacy nonprofit as a Junior Editor and Staff Writer. I also interned in public relations as a Publicity Assistant, where I wrote and edited content to promote clients' products and services across diverse industries.
As a former writing consultant, I helped students hone their writing abilities from brainstorming to revision. I earned my 120-hour TEFL certification and taught English online to students around the world. As a Kindergaten teacher, I strengthened my skills in planning, multitasking, leadership, interpersonal communication, organization and more.
I am now a publishing professional who has worked in both editorial and systems support at Wiley. I have screened scholarly manuscripts for adherence to journal guidelines and supported editors, authors, and reviewers through the submission and peer review processes. In systems support, I have done back-end configuration on several submission sites and stayed in constant communication with stakeholders to implement journal needs, grant roles and access, and troubleshoot technical issues.
In my work, I hope to continue serving communities and encouraging the pursuit of knowledge and connection. I strongly value representation and inclusion, and I am committed to advocating for both by supporting workplace equity initiatives and encouraging honest conversation with my colleagues.
