About Christine
For the last twenty years, I’ve had the privilege of discovering and publishing incredible books and being able to work with amazing writers to develop their craft and deliver their stories to the world. I’ve been an in-house editor at various Big Five imprints, including Doubleday, Broadway, Hyperion, and, most recently, as a Senior Editor at Simon and Schuster. I’ve also worked independently, contracting with publishers, agents and writers for editorial work, content development and ghostwriting. On top of all that, I also pivoted to write novels myself. I've published two with a writing partner, Jo Piazza: We Are Not Like Them (Atria, 2021) which was a Good Morning America Book Club Pick and You Were Always Mine (Atria, 2023), as well as my solo debut novel, All The Men I've Loved Again (Atria, 2025).
Throughout my publishing career, I’ve worked on a diverse range of projects across many categories, including many New York Times bestsellers. The through line to all of my work is a commitment to champion accomplished story-telling, distinctive voices, and narratives that drive discussion and offer emotional resonance and inspiration. Stories can change hearts, minds— and the world. Hokey, but true and I’m committed to delivering (and helping others deliver) those sorts of stories to readers who are eager for them. Perhaps I can help you?
