She has built her career helping authors turn their assetsÑbe they unique life stories, cutting edge research, foundations for social good, transformative programs, or online communitiesÑinto compelling proposals and noteworthy books.Jaidree is a member of the Association of American Literary Agents and Literary Agents of Change, where she serves as a co-director of the Fellowship Program. When she is not reading, she can usually be found dancing or in the weight room (sometimes both). Jaidree lives in Manhattan, surrounded by arguably too many house plantsÑand will likely buy more.
