I’m a writer, editor, and aspiring master knitter. Born in Southern California, I moved to Seattle to receive a BA in English Literature and History from Seattle University. A few of my favorite things include colorful stones, unusual punctuation, Castelvetrano olives, and illuminated manuscripts. 

As a word person, I know that writing and editing require distinctly different approaches. I love both. I love the flurry of inspiration when I first begin to string thoughts together and gleefully follow a concept to its end. I love shaping a narrative, restructuring content, and whittling a sentence down to its clearest, most electric form. My detail-obsessed brain even loves finding typos and punctuation errors.

In my role at True Brands as the lead copywriter and editor, I crafted everything from SEO-driven product descriptions to packaging copy and marketing emails for 10+ unique brands, both from a D2C and B2B perspective. Previously, I’ve worked as a communications manager in the nonprofit arts sphere and as a copywriter in the beer & wine industry. I’ve also bopped around at quite a few odd jobs: barista, bartender, legal proofreader, pizza maker, and fruit seller.

Whether you’re looking to punch up your brand’s voice or need a gentle first reader for your manuscript, I’ll bring my playful sense of language, razor-sharp editorial eye, and irrepressible cheerfulness to the table. And I love talking about books and trading recommendations, so let me help you find your next great read!
