Who I Work With

You've got a draft—but you're overwhelmed, unsure, or burned out. That's where I come in.

I work with first-time authors, self-publishing writers, and storytellers—especially BIPOC creatives—who want their book to be more than "just done." Whether you're still drafting or stuck in revision, I help you get clarity, structure, and the confidence to move forward. 

You're in the right place if:

  • You've written a draft but don't know what to do next.

  • You've gotten burned by editors who rushed, ghosted, didn't give actionable feedback.

  • You're serious about publishing and want a book you're proud of.

  • You care deeply about story quality, voice, and impact.
