General Experience

I began indexing in 2001. Since then I have indexed hundreds of academic and trade books across many different subjects in the arts and social sciences.

I have a degree in Politics and Modern History. Prior to indexing, I qualified with the Institute of Personnel Management and spent fifteen years working in human resources and administration.
