About Anne

Everything begins with a dream. Everything begins with a vision. Nothing can be accomplished without an authentic belief in yourself. And nothing can be sustained until one learns the value of giving back.
​
My vision began with my first job in Honolulu, Hawaii. A savvy employer at a PR firm where I was hired required that every new employee read two books as a pre-requisite of employment: Norman Vincent Peale's "The Power of Positive Thinking" and Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People". The underlying message of these two iconic best-sellers made it all seem easy, i.e., you can if you THINK you can and one can never underestimate the importance of meaningful relationships with others.


Entrepreneur/Publishing & Marketing
Specializing in Beauty, Health & Wellness​
Health and Wellness are in my DNA, beginning with my father who was an Army Colonel in the Medical Service Corps and my grandmother, a hospital nutritionist. Early on, I was inspired to go into healthcare but not as a medical professional. Rather, my path would take me into publishing...first, publishing review manuals for doctors to pass their Boards... then establishing a publishing imprint to market and publish medical authors... and finally to launch an award-winning consumer magazine in beauty, health and wellness.
​
Today, I have the joy of working as an Acquisitions Editor at a top Manhattan publishing house, scouting for that manuscript that can become a best seller!
