I copyedit all materials and review all rounds of graphic design, build relationships with and manage vendors; and publish and lay out reports on the organization’s Wordpress site.I developed a clear editorial process in the absence of one to move projects from conception to publication, managing coordination with both internal stakeholders like authors and researchers and outside stakeholders like funders and community partners. Project Highlights:From 2019 - 2023, I project-managed an essay collection about children’s algorithmic rights, contracted for publication with a major university press: from the call for proposals to multiple rounds of copyediting, coordination with authors and the publishing house, and submission to a peer review process. Accomplished a successful submission while navigating multiple challenges to the editorial timeline due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and once the book went to press, managed all final rounds of page proofs as well as coordination with the publisher’s marketing department to promote.I recently led a 9-month project to produce 11 case studies of youth-serving organizations designed to amplify their reach and put them in touch with supporters. I conducted interviews with organization leaders, studied background materials, solicited and managed input from researchers on more technical aspects, and personally authored six of the portraits, while collaborating with a contractor on the others. I also managed feedback to the web team on the final website layout and design.As Editor of the CLL's associated blog, I handle solicitation, editing, and final production on blog posts – over 50 since 2022. As Editor of our bi-weekly newsletter, I curate dynamic content to share with over 8k subscribers, paying close attention to trends and rising topics of interest among the community. Show less
