I create and edit content that resonates with diverse audiences, from fiction and poetry readers and museum visitors to foundations, corporations, and academic institutions.

I’m practiced at producing sharp, artful communications under tight deadlines. With a background that blends creative and analytical writing, I adapt to a wide range of styles and branding requirements, crafting accurate and engaging narratives.

Throughout my career, I’ve sharpened my editorial expertise across various content types, including copyediting, SEO, and grant writing. My ability to balance creative flair with analytical precision allows me to thrive in fast-paced environments. As Senior Reader for the New England Review, I’ve worked closely with writers, while my work managing complex manuscripts at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art underscores my versatility as a communications professional.

Collaboration is central to my approach. Whether on academic committees, publishing teams, or within museums, I excel at workshopping ideas and fostering dialogue. My calm demeanor and solution-oriented mindset have guided teams through high-pressure situations, from strict deadlines to creative feedback sessions with emerging writers.

Always eager to evolve, I embrace new tools and view emerging technologies as opportunities to enhance the content creation process. My lifelong commitment to learning and growth ensures that I stay ahead of industry trends, consistently delivering high-quality work that connects with multicultural audiences.

Additionally, my dedication to precision, creativity, and impactful communication has made me an invaluable asset to every organization I’ve worked with. I’ve been an active presence in the literary community through a range of invited lectures and speaking engagements. I’ve also served as a publication representative for Normandale College Fall Writing Festival and Rain Taxi Review of Books, and I’ve participated in fiction readings alongside notable novelists and poets.

With advanced degrees in English and fiction writing from highly-regarded institutions, I bring rigor and a passion for storytelling to every project.

I look forward to working with you to create the best product possible.
