I'm currently working on my first novel, the coming of age story of a female Abstract Expressionist painter set in New York City between the 1950s-70s.

I love the written word and also write nonfiction, screenplays, and to-do lists. My work has appeared online on The Atlantic and Bust as well as in print in The San Francisco Chronicle.

In past lives, I've worked as the creative director for a kombucha company, a summer camp art instructor, and a jewelry maker.

When I'm not working on my novel, I love to make art, spend time with my dogs, cook, venture outdoors, and read (usually too many books at a time, though not at the same time, because I haven't yet mastered that particular skill).
