I am a professional writer and an educator with over twenty years experience working with other writers, from novelists to neuroscientists. Most recently, I developed and directed a new PhD writing support program for Columbia University. My second nonfiction book is forthcoming from Knopf in 2026.

As a writing coach and developmental editor, I can help you:

• Develop an idea into a working draft;

• Break complicated tasks into manageable parts;

• Talk through potential structures;

• Regain momentum on a long-term project;

• Reframe your work for a new audience (for example, presenting academic findings to a general readership);

• Put together a nonfiction book proposal for a trade publisher;

• Find ways to move past whatever feels challenging right now.

In active, collaborative, one-hour Zoom sessions, we'll work together to move your project forward.
