Why Work With Me

I believe good writing isn’t about fixing something that’s broken, it’s about helping the work become more itself.

Whether I’m editing, ghostwriting, or working on my own projects, my approach is rooted in care, clarity, and collaboration. I pay close attention to voice—not just how something sounds on the page, but what it’s trying to say beneath the surface.

I’m a working writer as well as an editor, which means I understand the vulnerability that comes with sharing unfinished work. I know how personal words can be, and I treat every project with respect for the time, courage, and emotional labor it took to create it.

My editorial philosophy

• Voice-first, always.
  Your voice doesn’t get sanded down or overwritten. My job is to sharpen, support, and clarify—not replace.

• Clear, kind feedback.
  You’ll receive honest, thoughtful notes that are specific and actionable—never vague, dismissive, or overwhelming.

• Big-picture + sentence-level care.
  I’m equally invested in structure, pacing, and emotional resonance and in the rhythm of a paragraph or the weight of a single word.

• Respect for creative vulnerability.
  I understand when a piece of writing is tied to identity, memory, or lived experience. That awareness guides how I edit and collaborate.

• Professional boundaries and transparency.
  Clear timelines, realistic scope, and open communication are part of the process. You’ll always know what to expect.

What clients often say they appreciate

• Feeling seen in their work

• Edits that make the writing stronger without losing its heart

• A collaborative process that feels steady and supportive

• Guidance that builds confidence, not dependence

At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to help you feel more confident about the work you’re putting into the world, and more connected to it when you’re done.
