About Me

Books have an amazing and sacred power to make people feel seen. They are also windows into perspectives we’ve never experienced before. Books can broaden your mind and teach empathy; they can soothe and comfort in hardship; they make us laugh, love, and cry. Books teach us to feel. It is my goal to ensure your story, your voice, reaches your readers so they can relish in all the wonders a good book can give.

I’m a Portland-based editor who specializes in genre fiction. My main focuses are fantasy, sci-fi, and mystery, but I welcome other genres depending on the services you are looking for.

I am a reader by choice and editor by consequence. As a long time reader and hobbyist writer, I have a deep love for stories and the power they can have in our lives. I turned my passion into a craft and now edit manuscripts, short stories, and copy for clarity, cohesion, and ultimately to ensure a smooth reading experience while always remaining faithful to the expertise and voice of the author.
