Indexer Locator

I weave high-quality, accurate, user-friendly indexes for scholarly work across the social sciences and humanities. I combine my broad academic expertise and my indexing training with years of experience on helping researchers find library materials to craft highly usable indexes for all readers.

Beyond my expertise in standard back-of-book indexing, I am expert with embedded indexing and its variations. I am comfortably working with CUP and OUP indexing methods.

I regularly index scholarly books in gender studies, communication and media studies, library and information sciences, environmental studies, American studies, Black history, ethnic studies, education, economics, business, comparative religion, anthropology and foodways, archaeology, political science, international relations, and history. I specialize in interdisciplinary works–particularly the intersections of these subjects.

I am also an experienced cookbook indexer, and particularly enjoy working with vegan/vegetarian/WFPB cookbooks and international cookbooks.

When not indexing, I teach the Library Juice Academy Book Indexing course, I adjunct at my local university, and I provide developmental editing, copyediting, and coaching services for scholarly authors in the areas listed above.
