About Me

With over a decade of experience in the publishing industry, I've been fortunate to dip my toes in a bit of everything. I'm a published author of six Young Adult fiction novels and my first adult novel, WHEN I WAS ALICE, debuted in 2024 (CamCat Books/ Marble Press). I'm currently working on my eighth book. I'm the winner of the 2014 Moonbeam Children's Literature Award, and founder of a teen book festival called YA FEST. I have been a marketing director for a small publisher, an editorial intern for a NYC-based literary agency, and an associate to a successful ghostwriter. I have first-hand experience in both self publishing and traditional, and have had the pleasure of working with many indie and traditionally published authors, several of whom are USA Today and NY Times bestsellers.

 My first love has always been writing: the world building, the characters, the process of weaving a story until the words feel as if they've jumped off the page into our reality. If you're a first-time author ready to pursue your personal publishing journey, or a seasoned author in need of extra help to make your manuscript shine, you and your book deserve a dedicated, patient, and creative force behind it.  

As a freelance editor, I'm excited to help YOUR stories come to life.
