Stephanie Shroot

Commissioning Editor, Special Collections Open Access Journals, Sage Publishing

A matchmaker between strong research and an engaged audience. Behind every decision is a mix of data, intuition, and genuine excitement for the work researchers are doing. I launch a multitude of Special Collections, commission high quality articles, and host impactful keynote seminars, consistently delivering results that exceed expectations.
