I make intelligent people more intelligible

 

Some of the smartest people in the world struggle to describe what they do—and why it matters.

That’s why you need an ideas editor.

Hi! My name’s Georgia, and I translate dense topics into accessible language. I work with CEOs, academics, authors, NASA astronauts, and Nobel Peace Prize winners to help them express their ideas and inspire action. Emerging technology, scientific advances, national security issues, economic theories, philosophical musings—if it’s deeply nerdy and also deeply confusing, then I’m deeply interested in it.

The same message should be translated into different mediums for different audiences. Sometimes that’s text based—books, blog posts, whitepapers—but other times those ideas should be expressed as speeches, podcasts, experiences, or artworks. I believe we need to meet people where they’re at: to speak in a language that they understand, and help them see themselves as part of the solution, not the problem.

I currently embody these values in my work as the Publisher of ABC Books, an imprint of HarperCollins Australia, and I also take on editorial consulting projects with companies around the world. Please reach out if you have an idea that needs translating.
