Author, Editor

With 40 years of editorial expertise spanning publishing, communications, and content development, I help Christian authors transform their manuscripts into polished, reader-ready books.

My editorial background includes:

Director of Communications for a faith-based nonprofit, where I wrote and edited fundraising appeals, devotionals, and donor gift books
Managing editor for premium B2B newsletters and custom market research reports
Ghostwriter and editor for multiple books that achieved Amazon bestseller status
Published author with a Christian sci-fi novel that was a Realm Award finalist

What sets me apart:

I bring both sides of the publishing equation to every project. As an editor, I have the professional eye to spot structural issues, pacing problems, and clarity gaps. As an author, I understand the vulnerability of submitting your work for feedback and the creative journey of bringing a story to life.

My superpower is helping authors create high-quality books that are easy to read and comprehend. I excel at seeing the big picture, then organizing and distilling complex ideas into clear, engaging prose. Whether you're writing fiction that needs tighter story structure or nonfiction that needs better flow, I can help you get there.

I specialize in Christian fiction and nonfiction across genres—from speculative fiction (fantasy/sci-fi) to devotionals, Christian living, and everything in between. I'm passionate about helping faith-based authors craft compelling content that honors both excellent storytelling and authentic faith.
