About Candidate
I am a Graphic Designer and Book Production Specialist with over 20 years of experience in book interior design, typesetting, cover design, and print-ready publishing production, with particular experience working on Christian books and faith-based publications.
My experience includes preparing devotionals, Bible-study materials, Christian non-fiction, prayer journals, study guides, workbooks, and bilingual English–Hindi publications. I understand that Christian publishing requires not only attractive design, but also careful typography, accurate text handling, consistency, readability, and respect for the content.
I can handle the complete book production workflow, including:
• Professional book interior layout and typesetting
• Christian book and devotional design
• Bible-study and study-guide formatting
• Front, spine and back cover design
• Chapter, heading and section styling
• Tables of contents, running heads, footnotes and page elements
• Print-ready PDF, bleed, trim and preflight preparation
• InDesign templates, paragraph/character styles and master pages
• INDD/IDML source files and packaged production files
• KDP and IngramSpark publishing workflows
• English and Hindi/Devanagari bilingual typesetting
I have worked independently for many years and am experienced in communicating with authors, publishers, editors and ministry teams remotely. I can follow detailed publishing specifications, manage corrections carefully, and maintain consistency throughout long manuscripts.
My main design tools include Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Canva, Affinity Publisher and Microsoft Word.
I am available for remote freelance, part-time, full-time, or long-term publishing work. I would welcome the opportunity to support a Christian publisher, ministry, author, or publishing team with reliable and professional book production.
Thank you for considering my application. I would be pleased to provide relevant samples of Christian book interiors, covers and other publishing projects.
Kind regards,
