My Story
I've been passionate about the written word since childhood. When I wasn't writing I was reading. Books held such allure that I didn't hear my family calling me (this is sometimes still the case as they will be quick to affirm).
​
After studying communications and journalism at Chatham University, I worked on content for a variety of companies, including ecommerce, nonprofits, and journalist magazines. I also entered the publishing space, joining several editorial teams to edit several books, ensuring they were fit for publication.
I would love to help polish your writing and give it that extra something. And even if you don't need my help I'd still like to hear from you—I'm always looking to connect with fellow writers!
