I have been script editor for the award-winning Jonas McCord (Malice, The Body) most recently on the anticipated film Into Thin Air.

I have been writing since I was in kindergarten, and when I started to win awards for my stories in first grade, I decided I wanted it to be a career!
I have done freelance tutoring in English and Creative Writing, and have been writing fiction and creative non-fiction professionally since 2006. I have published my own work in literary magazines and on blogs and other websites, as well as one published lead magnet on Amazon Kindle.
I have been editing professionally since 2008, and ghostwriting since 2018. I have completed over fifty ghostwritten books from 10k to 100k words.
The written word is my passion and I love to create gripping and engaging stories in many genres!
