That belief has shaped every part of my career.

I work as a literary scout, reading manuscripts and hunting for books that that can make an impact. I've spent years in marketing, helping clients find their voice and build real relationships with their audiences. And as an herbalist and founder of Widow, I've learned to listen to the stories that both plants and people carry,  knowledge passed down through generations of folk practice.

I write about what I'm learning at the intersection of all of it: the publishing industry, the craft of building an audience, and what it actually looks like to build a creative career, including the burnout, the pivots, and the slow, uncomfortable work of figuring out what you want.
