Upon graduation from Bryn Mawr College, I began my editorial career at Kensington Publishing.  Hired as an Editorial Assistant, I rose through the editorial ranks to the position of Senior Editor.  I then moved to Signet Books, a division of Penguin/Putnam, and finally to Morrow/Avon where I worked both before and after its merger with HarperCollins Publishers. While at Morrow/Avon, I spearheaded the launch and oversaw the publishing program of Twilight Books, a mystery imprint.
