Who is
ABOUT THE EDITOR
A little bit
I work with publishers like Wizards of the Coast, Elder Glade Publishing, and Manuscripts as well as independent authors and businesses. I edited 2022 Hugo Award nominee, Seanan McGuire's Tangles in the short story category.
​
When I am not reading or editing, I am an avid gamer and gardener. I also dabble in journaling, yoga, rock climbing, mini-painting, and baking. When I can, I indulge my wanderlust and visit as many historical sites, museums, gardens, and local haunts as possible with my husband and our dog.
I live in the Great Lakes State of Michigan where I am a coordinator for the MI chapter of the Editorial Freelancers Association. I volunteer as Community Co-Coordinator for the Editors Tea Club and I am a member of ACES: The Society of Editing.
EXPERIENCE
my personal
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Writing and Rhetoric with a minor in Business from Oakland University, MI. I started my career in the automotive industry and had spent the last five years as a Technical Editor working with engineers and executives while running Book Realm Revisions.
​
What started as a creative side business quickly became my passion and what I wanted to do full-time. I have been full-time with Book Realm Revisions and its clients since 2022. I bring over a decade of experience to help polish and transform my client's drafts into the vision they dream of.
