Rose Friel is a publishing consultant specializing in creating and executing logic-led strategies so that authors and publishing professionals can achieve their creative goals.

Known for her ability to blend logic with empathy, an insatiable curiosity, and an impressive memory, she works to bring the best fit to building publishing strategies and making key introductions, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. She has a proven track record in connecting long-lasting creative partnerships and providing editorial advice to authors whose books have gained viral popularity post-publication.

Rose holds a Bachelor's in English and Communication Studies from Villanova University and a Master's in Publishing from the London College of Communication, where she focused on the benefits and detriments of routine engagement in writers' groups on member morale. While she works within both fiction and nonfiction markets, her favorite books include Open Water by Caleb Azumah Nelson, One Day In December by Josie Silver, The Last Samurai by Helen DeWitt, and Shakespeare’s collected work.

Based in Austin, Texas, Rose lives with her fiancé and their 17-year-old cat.
