Professional Background

I currently work as the Copy Chief for Garden & Gun magazine. Other positions I have held since graduating from Duke include Copy Chief at Vogue, Copy Editor at Discover magazine, and Managing Editor of a custom publishing company. I have also copyedited several books for such publishers as HarperCollins and Little, Brown and Company.

How has being an English graduate from Duke University help shape your professional success?

As an English major at Duke, I was challenged to read a wide variety of texts closely and critically. This was great preparation for being an editor.
