Bio
Tom Maddox
Sophie is intelligent, well-informed, focused, persistent, and hard-working. Thus she is incredibly well-organized and especially effective at managing projects to their conclusions. As an individual or a member of a team, she works effectively and enthusiastically. When I was her manager, I above all counted on her to get things done, and she invariably did so. To anyone who might have the opportunity to hire her, I say do so--you will be glad you did.
Narissa Tadros
Working on a small editorial team with a disproportionately large volume of content isn’t something everyone can handle. Sophie, however, manages it with a great deal of grace, skill, and humour. As anyone in publishing knows, things can change very quickly and Sophie has proven herself time and again to be an unflappable editor who solves problems and jumps in wherever she’s needed. Sophie’s commitment to producing the strongest work possible, and her ability to understand and adapt to changing target markets make her an invaluable member of any team.
