Welcome to my portfolio
Since 2009, I’ve edited or project managed more than 325 books; 120 reports, policy papers or white papers; 30 major reference works or catalogues raisonnés; 50 magazine issues; and 200 assorted other publications – in all, more than 65 million words.
Following are some of the projects I’m most proud of.
You can also take a look at my testimonials.
Art and art history
From a handful of object labels to a million-word catalogue raisonné, I offer sensitivity to context balanced with rigorous attention to cataloguing data, illustrations and referencing. I specialize in European art history and large, complex works but enjoy any opportunity to experience different ways of visualizing the world or dive deeply into a movement or artist.
