About Me
Writer. Editor. Educator.
I am a writer, editor, educator, and all-around creative force. In the world of fiction, storytelling is, and always has been, my passion because we can't create a better world without first imagining one. I champion fiction because most of our lives are built on the intangible fictions we are constantly weaving into reality as a society.
​
Outside of the world of fiction, I have a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies/Creative Writing from Thomas More University and a Master of Arts in Publishing and Professional Writing from Emerson College. I’ve pursued these degrees because of my interest in the way storytelling, the dissemination of information, and politics intersect; I’m passionate about marrying the pragmatic and the creative.
