Overview
Ready to elevate your writing to a masterpiece? Success speaks louder than words, with my clients’ award-winning works being the proof of that. I know what it takes to get you published, and I will get straight to the heart of your manuscript’s problems.
You’ll receive clear and comprehensive diagnoses, questions, and suggestions, ensuring that your work is finished and prepared for submission. You’ll be able to take your manuscript to the next level of excellence with my help. Feedback will be accessible and incisive, but also wonderfully kind and encouraging.
With a record of over 9 years in the industry, I’ve collaborated with some of the most renowned names in my field. I worked as an editor and reader for top-selling literary agent Sarah Davies of Greenhouse Literary Agency. My talented clients have won prestigious awards such as The Newbery Award. I'm here to facilitate your mission to be published.

I serve as a resident writing coach, and not only do I post craft-based articles, but I also critique giveaways for its followers.
Editorial
I have worked for ten years now as a freelance editor with an extremely talented and diverse editor collective to support writers through comprehensive editorial feedback. I do everything possible to give writers both the why in suggesting revisions, but also the how.
