Wait, who are you?

I am someone who fell in love with making books. I write, edit, design, and publish them.

I'm a young adult supernatural sci-fi author obsessed with stories about complicated protagonists grappling with super powers and identities. My first three novels, Metal Heart, Tin Road, and Iron Curtain, are part of a series available NOW for checkout at the Multnomah County Library and for purchase on Amazon.

I'm an experienced editor well-versed in developmental, line editing, copyediting, and proofreading. I'm particularly excited to work with young adult, dystopian, science fiction, and speculative fiction manuscripts.

I'm a multimedia professional with nearly a decade of experience in marketing and communications, as well as project management, event coordination, fundraising, social media, and content strategy. I am passionate about helping organizations speak with their unique voice and share their stories.

​And lastly, I'm a Pacific Northwest local, born and raised. I earned an MA in Book Publishing and a BA in English from Portland State University, and I've worked a variety of odd jobs in my time. However, my true passion is grounded in writing and editing.

​But above all else, I love collaborating with others and participating in the process of publishing kick-ass stories. 

What do you do?

​I write and edit books. Three of them are available now on Amazon via print and e-book format.
The others are coming soon. 
Metal Heart, Tin Road, Iron Curtain, Astrid vs. the Asteroid, Rosita Ruins the Heist, and Nowhere Man: a Ghost Story.

I'm currently a Publishing Assistant at Chemeketa Press. I'm also an experienced editor with a background in developmental editing, line editing, copyediting, and proofreading. I've worked in marketing and communications for nearly a decade, specifically focused on content creation, social media strategy, and digital media design.

How do I reach you?
​I'm in the market for an agent or the right kind of publisher for YA supernatural sci-fi focused on characters grappling with their identities and learning how to harness their powers.
​I like my main characters complicated and morally ambiguous but with a big heart.
​I'm always available for workshops, interviews, freelance editing services, and/or general questions.
