Writing.

Creating community through words.

I am a writer.

I write to inspire people the way I have come alive by reading. I do this by writing about connection and the human experience as seen from my corner of the world.

Current Projects:

I am working on my debut novel about neurospicy sisters who are grieving their parents' deaths when the wrong sister gets pregnant.  

It was Sabrina who cared for their mother during the last stages of her illness as twin sister Kate spiraled from her latest miscarriage. But Sabrina’s accomplishments go unnoticed. What her family sees instead is her quirky demeanor and that she has never lived alone or driven a car. Kate thinks she must take charge. It’s Hanukkah when Sabrina’s best friend points out that “Most people pee on the stick a single time and trust the results.” Sabrina needs six tests to be sure. When she tells her sister, the women must figure out how to live with themselves, each other, and find the family they all need alongside the threat of a custody battle everyone fears.

This is a book for all of us who feel like we’ve never belonged. I want readers to know they are enough, that each of us is unique and loved, even if our families look different, if our traditions are untraditional, if our minds go a mile a minute.

I am also working on my latest collaboration project, and I’m excited to tell you about that as soon as I can.

Past Work:

I also write book reviews and essay-length narrative non-fiction pieces.

I co-wrote UNCULTURED, which was recommended by the New York Times, earned starred reviews in Publishers Weekly, and nominated as a GoodReads Choice Award Best Memoir of the Year.

I was honored to be named as the 2024 Writer in Residence at the William N. Skirball Writers’ Center, Cuyahoga County Public Library. I focused on inspiring writers to understand their work through the lenses of community, craft, and commerce.
