I specialize in the design, typesetting, and illustration of books and other publication formats ranging from reviews and bulletins to high-end, full-colour editions.

My clients include publishers, university presses, and professional, historical, charitable, and other organizations. I feel most at home with publications that make a social contribution in cultural, scholarly, societal, professional, academic, historical, literary, health and other such fields.

Independent authors can depend on me to steer their manuscript through all stages of design and production to the final printed and electronic books (ebooks), and to provide guidance and support to navigate online publishing platforms.

It is also special pleasure to help families bring their genealogical history, memoirs, photos, and memorabilia into book form as a lasting heritage for future generations.

To every project I bring a high standard of elegant typesetting as well as excellent English language skills. When working with organizations, I can be relied upon to adhere to in-house style, production guidelines, and methods of work.

Beyond the technical considerations, I am first and foremost an artist and designer. After completing my studies in Architectural Art: Art for Public Places at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario, the world of publishing evolved as my “public place.” This is the most important ingredient I will bring your project: the skill to express the essence of your content in visual form.

My long and diversified involvement in the publishing industry, with direct experience at all stages of both traditional and electronic publishing, will ensure a smooth process with best outcome.

For more than 12 years, I have brought these skills and expertise together under the business name New Leaf Publication Design to guarantee publications of high aesthetic and technical quality at very reasonable rates, working from my home-based studio.

I look forward to discussing your project with you.
