Hi and welcome! I’m a queer author writing hopeful, character-driven stories, usually with a touch of found family, mature romance in accessible fantasy worlds. My work leans into deep emotional exploration—characters who feel lived-in, relationships that grow honestly, and worlds you can sink into without needing a glossary.

My debut is currently out on submission. In addition to my own projects, I ghostwrite commercial fiction and have contributed to multiple titles that later landed spots on the New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists.

Available for representation, collaborations, and ghostwriting. Thanks for stopping by!

Rooted in real life, weaving hopeful worlds — fantasy that feels like home.
