About me
A passion for books and a broad industry knowledge
After earning my Master's degree in Book Publishing from Portland State University in June 2025, I am looking for my next full-time position in book marketing or production.
I am a versatile book marketer and editor with experience at the small, student-run Ooligan press, as a freelancer, and as a bookseller at Powell's Books. I have a passion for languages and linguistics which always finds surprising ways to assist me in my work. Explore my portfolio to learn more about my broad range of experience and what skills I can bring to your team.
