Work With Me
I help book creators get their spark back.
After five years and 395+ book reviews, I’ve developed something I call Material Over Noise — a framework for cutting through the clutter and finding what actually resonates with readers. It’s the lens I use for every review I write, and it’s the same lens I bring to my consulting work.
I work with book creators — authors, publishers, publicists, and anyone in the literary space — who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from what makes their work matter. Whether you need a fresh perspective on your manuscript’s positioning, honest feedback on how your book will land with readers, or help sharpening the story you’re telling about your work, I’m here for it.
This isn’t editing. This is creative consulting — helping you see your work the way a devoted, discerning reader sees it.
Why me.

NetGalley Top Reviewer — pre-approved by Macmillan Audio and Harper Perennial
NYU Modern Journalism — trained in critical analysis and storytelling
