“I have always viewed Andrew Nurnberg Associates as an agency that embodies a bold and visionary approach to publishing, unafraid to challenge borders and break down barriers. I have long admired Barbara’s and Doug’s work, particularly the way they have re-shaped the role of the agent to become a bridge between cultures and generations, opening doors for stories to connect and resonate on a global scale while respecting all local specificities of the different markets where the agency is active. I am thrilled and proud to become part of this worldwide network and look forward to starting this new, incredibly exciting chapter in my career.”
