I'm a developmental editor and copyeditor with a wealth of experience working on picture book and junior fiction titles for the trade and education markets. This includes both fiction and nonfiction books. My list includes titles for award-winning picture book publisher Red Paper Kite Publishing.

I am friendly, approachable and dedicated to helping you produce your best work. I adore children's books, and I absolutely love working with authors at any stage of their creative journey. Whether you are a first-time author or have many books under your belt, I'm ready to help you meet your self-publishing or traditional publishing goals. I am excited to hear more about your work!
