Why work with me?
As a former teacher and lifelong author, I have an author-centered approach to editing that prioritizes authorial choice and genre conventions. I have over two years of experience working with both independent authors and publishing houses like Podium Entertainment, Brown Books, Page & Vine, and more. I have worked on 40+ books for 9 publishing houses and 13 independent authors. I specialize in fiction, particularly in literary fiction, fantasy, and horror/thrillers, utilizing the Chicago Manual of Style, 18th edition.

Interested in taking your story
to the next level?
I am now booking for editing projects and coaching clients! Whether you're looking for the finishing touches on a completed manuscript, still tinkering away at plot, character, and world building, or looking for a brainstorming buddy, I can help at every step of the way.
Project delivery time ranges from 2 weeks to 1 month, depending on word count and session scheduling.
