I'm a French American writer, critic, and editor based in the Pacific Northwest.
My book, No Contact, an anthology about family estrangement, is forthcoming from Catapult in April 2026. Ocean Vuong called it "a landmark work" and it's a most anticipated book of the year in the Seattle Times and Zibby's Highlights.
I write essays, author profiles and interviews, and book reviews. My work appears in a variety of publications, including The Boston Globe, The Seattle Times, The Rumpus, CrimeReads, Chicago Review of Books, Under the Gum Tree, Room, and Hippocampus Magazine, and in literary anthologies such as Sharp Notions: Essays from the Stitching Life. I have received support from residencies at In Cahoots and Mineral School.
I edit fiction and creative nonfiction. Since 2015, my editorial work has centered around developmental and line editing. My approach is rooted in honesty and compassion, and I have an excellent track record with happy and returning clients. I'm an alumna of the editing program at the University of Washington, where I was professionally trained in all levels of editing. My career also includes extensive project management experience in publishing, advertising, and marketing. I provide editorial management expertise to organizations like the Artful Editor agency. Formerly I was managing editor of Literary Mama and Quiltfolk magazine.
