whole book in mind.
With more than three decades in graphic design, I bring both creative judgment and practical production knowledge to each publication. I work directly with authors, publishers, and proofreaders to develop layouts and type treatments, refine pages through multiple rounds of edits, and prepare publications for production. Every layout begins from scratch in InDesign.
Layout & typography
Design consultation, sample layouts, type exploration, and complete publication layout.
Image preparation
Photo correction and manipulation, silhouetting, and RGB-to-CMYK conversion.
Editorial collaboration
Implementing copy edits and proofreader corrections, with careful layout revisions throughout.
Prepress & final output
Proofing and printer-ready files for digital, offset, and web-fed printing, including projects with four or more inks.
