Below is a select list of books I have collaborated on over the past eight years. They have been New York Times bestsellers, optioned for film, and endorsed by countless luminaries such as Brene Brown, Mitch Albom, and Arianna Huffington. Each of these books holds as a special place in my heart and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to help their authors bring them to life.


"Cindy gave me critical insights into my own thoughts throughout the process, teaching me how to express my story in a way that I didn't imagine possible."
