Overview

I serve as Editor in Chief of an online publication called Wild Roof Journal. The mission of WRJ is to bring together visual and literary arts and provide a welcoming platform for artists and writers to reach a larger audience. The creative community that has sprouted up from WRJ since I began the publication in 2020 has been enormously inspiring.

As a freelance editor, I most enjoy working with writers who engage with nature, environmental topics, self-development, personal narrative, psychology, consciousness, Eastern spirituality, and other fields. My approach as editor is not to provide a formula for success; rather, I seek to connect with the writer’s source of inspiration, to clarify the intended messages, and to help polish each piece as it nears completion. There are times when directness has it’s place in the editorial process; however, a light touch also goes a long way when working with projects that writers are passionate about.

As a workshop facilitator, I have experience with all facets of the writing process, from creativity exercises and generating ideas to fine-tuning word choices, punctuation, and layout.
