Looking for freelance or consultancy projects that exercise my editing, writing and copyediting skills.
Currently, I am editor-in-chief of Refrigerated & Frozen Foods magazine, responsible for managing the folio; assigning, writing and editing content for print, e-newsletter and website; speaking at tradeshows and conferences; compiling sales support materials such as brochures and educational trade pieces; and staying on top of trends, new products and news related to the cold food industry. Previously, I spent four years as managing editor and executive editor of Snack Food & Wholesale Bakery and Dairy Foods, both sister publications, responsible for reporting on market trends, ingredient R&D, production technology and new products within the dairy, snack food and wholesale bakery markets. Prior to joining BNP Media, I served a five-year tenure as editor of quality control for Manufacturers' News, Inc., where I was named “Manager of the Year” in 2006. Previously, I worked as an editorial assistant for Insider Magazine and as a contributing features writer for my college newspaper, the Indiana Daily Student. Plus, I am a recipient of a Young Leader Scholar award, presented from American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE), and a graduate of Indiana University with a bachelor’s in journalism.
