Lacey Hanes Ogle, a Central Oregon native, leads VMI's exceptional team of editors. She a graduate of USC's Annenberg School of Communication and comes to VMI with a strong background in narrative analysis and conceptual editing.

The VMI editing team has decades of extensive and varied publishing experience with such reputable companies as Thomas Nelson, Barbour, and WaterBrook. This diversity allows us to pair a manuscript with an editor with experience in a specific genre like theology, fiction, or personal narrative.

Lacey says, "Writing is unquestionably an art, full of creativity and sensitivity to God's leading. It is also a craft, a technical molding of ideas into sentences that can be read and easily understood by a diverse group of readers. Our collaborative editing process is designed to provide you with a polished and professional finished product."
