I am a writer, creative thinker, designer and editor.

I’ve spent years developing personal and professional skills relating to the field of Literature Publishing. I’m particularly interested in Children’s Literature,

My experience includes years on the Editorial Boards of various literary magazines, including HIKA, Kenyon College’s oldest literary magazine. I’ve completed internships with firms like Wonderbly (a children’s publishing company located in the UK).

I’m a rising senior at Kenyon College, pursuing a degree in English with a Concentration in Creative Writing and a minor in Classics.

Creative Writing

Inspired by Carmen Maria Machado and Melissa Febos, my creative non-fiction pieces emerge from my interests in the intersection of womanhood, independence, romantic love, and healing.

Poetry

In classes with Professors Andrew Grace and Michael Leong, I developed strong poetic themes that have emerged in my writing since. I’ve since been published in HIKA.

Children’s Writing & Design

I completed a Professional Extension Project with Mara Alperin at Wonderbly. In my time there, I learned storyboarding, blurb-writing, copy-editing, and numerous processes that go into producing children’s literature, I remain inspired by Amy Krouse Rosenthal’s Little Pea.

Literary Magazine Design

I worked with Arts & Design Editors as well as HIKA‘s Editor-in-Chief to create clean, conscientious design that incorporated all accepted submissions in an organic fashion.
