About me
Hello! I am an award-winning Creative Writing BFA graduate with a background in developmental editing. As a student at Otterbein University, I served as the head fiction editor of the school magazine and worked with students one-on-one and in workshop groups to improve their fiction projects. I have over 5 years of experience independently beta reading and editing across genres! As your developmental editor, I will read your novel as a literary agent or publisher would, with a lens focused on optimal readability and entertainment value.

The first time I was scared to give me work to someone, the second time I was scared to see if she liked the changes I had made in my book.
