Book Operations Manager

What do you bring to the team?

I bring a wealth of weird and wonderful book knowledge, a strong work ethic, and a goofy smile & laugh. 

Sum up what you do at Fane in one sentence.

Ensure the right books are with the right people in the right place at the right time. 

Could you describe your favourite Fane moment? 

Monty Don speaking about the natural world in any context is an absolutely wonderful thing, especially on the Fane stage! 

Your favourite book?

The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles is the book that made me fall in love with reading and the influence a well-told, good story can have on a reader. In a more contemporary sense, I think that Richard Powers is the world’s greatest living writer – reading The Overstory made me think differently about our wider role in the world.
