I have two years of experience in book interior design and enjoy crafting layouts across a range of genres. My training includes extensive work in Adobe InDesign, along with Book Design Software, Typography, and Advanced Book Design courses through the master’s program in Book Publishing at Portland State University, where I developed numerous conceptual interior designs. I’m especially drawn to interiors and typography for their power to immerse readers, shaping the rhythm, atmosphere, and visual identity that bring a book’s world to life.

My editorial experience is rooted in a strong passion for developmental editing and story structure. I began honing these skills as a screenwriting undergraduate, where I provided developmental feedback on classmates’ scripts and built a foundation in narrative craft. As part of Ooligan Press, I’ve contributed to proofreads and edited marketing materials for multiple titles, gaining hands-on experience across stages of the publishing process. While in the Book Publishing program at Portland State University, I further strengthened my approach through Book Editing and Developmental Editing coursework. I’m drawn to developmental work because it allows me to collaborate closely with writers, shaping ideas and structure to help each manuscript become its strongest, most intentional version.
