My Work
While I work in most genres, since 2017, I have specialized in editing manuscripts by and about Indigenous Peoples. I began this work after attending the Indigenous Editors Circle in 2017. In 2025, worked with the Indigenous Editors Association to coordinate the return of the Indigenous Editors Circle, which was held at the En’owkin Centre in Penticton, BC. Since 2017, I have worked from within the publishing industry to help ensure that Indigenous People’s cultures and stories are published in a respectful way that honours their place on these lands.
Your words and ideas are powerful, especially when you use them to inform through engaging stories.
Three values underpin
my work.
Empowering and supporting underrepresented voices.
Building connections between my clients and their readers.
Creating a strong relationship with the authors I work with to best support their publishing efforts.
Let’s work together to tell your stories the way that you conceptualized them so that your ideas ripple out into the world in meaningful ways.
How I Fell Into This Career
After being a student and residential construction worker for years, I started my editing business in 2013. You can read the story about how giving my dog a bath unexpectedly caused me to literally fall into a new and amazing career in this blog post — it’s one of those funny/not funny stories. Fortunately, it has a happy ending that led us to meet here.
