Following jobs and internships in neuroscience, social work, and education, I rediscovered a childhood love of writing, earned an MFA in Creative Writing at Antioch L.A., and got a job editing nonfiction at a publishing house. I’ve written three novels, attended multiple Futurescapes workshops, was a 2019 Pitch Wars mentee, made the Top Ten and Judges’ Favorites lists for Ink & Insights 2020, and am now the senior editor of middle grade and young adult fiction at Jolly Fish Press and Flux.
