I have nearly years of experience in the book trade as well as a master's degree in literary theory from New York University. Currently, I'm the executive director of the Midwest Independent Booksellers Association, a nonprofit trade organization that represents independent bookstores. Last year, I launched the Heartland Fall Forum, a brand-new trade show for the greater Midwestern independent bookselling market. Nearly people attended and it was considered a tremendous success (www.HeartlandFallForum.org). I'm also a freelance writer looking for a home for my food writing. In August , I was one of the "special mentions" (a runner up) in the Chronicle Books Scholarship for Recipe Writing offered by The Symposium for Professional Food Writers.
