Versatile Editor and Writer At Your Service
There are two foundations at the heart of my freelance editing and writing practice:
- Meticulous attention to the mechanics of language and the art of storytelling
- Gracious communication centered on supporting and amplifying your unique voice and goals
As an editor, I work with clients ranging from organic farms to organizational coaches. I have provided comprehensive developmental editing to authors whose work ranges from first-time memoir to near-future dystopian novel and thesis dissertations. With my extensive experience editing for Esalen Institute, the iconic Big Sur retreat center, I have a unique perspective on wellness, self-help, and transformational growth topics. As a published novelist, I have an abiding love for literary and historical fiction. Please see my website for specific information about my book editing services for authors, and more about my background.
As a writer, whether I am working with you to create website content or marketing collateral such as articles, brochures, grant applications, blog features, or social media campaigns, I am researching your markets, deepening your brand, and infusing each component with creativity and skill that reflects more than 20 years of experience with a diverse array of clients and organizations.
My most recent novel, The Gyre, won the 2026 IndieReader Award for Historical Fiction and the 2025 Electric Book Award. My debut novel, Among the Wonderful, was reviewed in The New York Times, O the Oprah Magazine, The Washington Post, and elsewhere.
Feel free to contact me to chat about your unique writing or editing needs. I look forward to working with you.
