    \\ PhD-trained writer and editor with professional experience in graphic design // We are awash in information—news, advertising, books, instructions, web content, speeches, presentations—but we scarcely have the time and attention to engage with it all. We choose what seems most urgent or important, and ignore the rest. The form in which the information is delivered matters. A dynamic website invites us to engage with it. An intriguing cover compels us to turn a book's pages. An elegant slide deck sparks our interest in a company or product. A striking logo settles in our memory and becomes forever linked with a brand. For six and a half years, I worked at Princeton University Press, one of the nation's leading academic publishers. At the Press, I managed workflow for the Creative Media Lab, negotiated and curated intellectual property rights, researched art, and wrote content for our Ideas blog. Today, in the era of AI-generated content, a human creator is more important than ever. While AI is capable of producing new content rapidly and almost flawlessly, it cannot (and likely will not) replace the nuances of human consciousness and creativity. If you aspire to reach a human audience, choose a human to make the contact.
