I’ve been a storyteller since I was ten years old. Gathering vignettes and cobbling them together into a cohesive plot and compelling story was my refuge and safe space. As I explored fields of study in college, I found art history and discovered the art form of visual storytelling. In graduate school, I found exhibitions, bringing together the words and the visuals to weave a curated story through visual culture. Storytelling is the marrow that flows through my bones.

As humans, we have infinite pathways to tell our stories and for different purposes. My expertise in storytelling focuses on writing and editing novels, and short stories, and developing hiring documents. Each avenue is an opportunity to tell someone about who you are and what you have to share with the world.

Editor

Editing is a craft and an art form that takes place between two creatives. My editing practice is focused on text development, developmental editing, line editing, and copyediting; I thrive getting into the weeds of a manuscript and fine tuning it for publication. Exercising taste and diplomatically sharing aesthetic judgements, my goal with every project is to learn who my client is and attune my editing notes to the sensibility and psychology of each author I work with.

Career Coaching and Consulting

Entering the job market with the right documents is the key to landing the job that you want. In addition to teaching these skills for 10+ years, I’ve also reviewed hundreds of CV’s and resumes from professionals at the top of their field. All good CV’s and resumes need a strong cover letter. My goal is to help clients develop these hiring documents, preparing them to feel confident applying and interviewing for their dream job.
