My role in the process
I guide the design and production process of your book. My role is to ensure that the visual and technical aspects run smoothly. I support you from concept to print-ready files: from the cover and interior layout to advice on size, paper, and publication. Together, we make sure your book looks professional, reads comfortably, and is ready for publication.
