Books and business. I’ve wanted to be an author and entrepreneur for as long as I can remember.

After graduating from UW-Madison in three years, I took a gap year to write my first novel. I knew I was on the right path when I’d get up from my laptop and pace with excitement. By age 22, I had written my first book, pitched to agents, and learned the industry.

I also became a freelance writer which eventually turned into a position as a content marketer and later marketing manager. I was fortunate to learn marketing in a fast-paced, VC-backed environment.

Now I’m the founder of a content marketing agency. My work at Narrative not only fulfills my dream of growing a business and working with talented leaders, it also gives me the flexibility to continue to write.

In June 2023, I pitched my second novel—a thriller akin to Gone Girl—to thirteen agents and editors in NYC. All thirteen requested more material.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my career, it’s that having an audience is everything. That’s why I created Feminist Thriller Club, a platform built for fans of books similar to mine. Join the list to find your next favorite book or show.
