About Me

I've been grading grammar homework since 2005 and editing fiction and poetry since 2008. In 2013, I started editing comics and full manuscripts for novelists and literary agents.

In 2015, I assembled a team of freelance editors of various specialties.

In 2020, I earned my MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults at Hamline University.

Read "7 Reasons to Make Me Your Editor."
