About me

My résumé may not be the most impressive or cohesive, but who cares, right? All that matters is creating the best version of your story. I thrive in unfamiliar territory, as demonstrated by:

  • spending 5+ years in South Korea teaching English as a Second Language.
  • riding a bus through the Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) in the dead of winter.

Still not convinced? Well... my super power is knowing when to shut the hell up and let you do the talking and explaining while I navigate your story so I can put it in the best words for you.

Language background

Languages are my thing. I have been learning Korean since 2011—seriously, it never ends—and am currently double majoring in French and Psychology at Tulsa Community College. Problem-solving and staying well within my zone of genius come naturally to me. If you struggled with self-doubt or perfection, often asking yourself, "Why should anyone give a damn about my story?" then you’ve stumbled into the right corner of the internet here. By the way, how did you find my website??? Let me know. [email protected]

Target audience

As an extrovert interested in people’s personal struggles and stories, my target audience is naturally novelists, thought leaders, and memoirists who have managed to find their way—immediately or years down the line—after a major life event: homelessness, culture shock (living abroad, then returning home years later), learning a new language, childbirth, rehabilitation, change in career, body modification, losing religion, finding religion, losing someone. I am 100% comfortable working with content that may include serious mental illness, trauma, violence, gore, crime, sex, and other explicit themes.
