About

I’m a multiple award-winning storyteller working across games, marketing, media, and fiction.

For more than a decade in the gaming industry, I’ve built worlds and shaped player experiences from nearly every angle — sales, marketing, social media, localization, narrative design, and game design. That cross-disciplinary background allows me to see story not just as writing on a page, but as the connective tissue between audience, product, and experience.

Alongside my work in games, I bring over a decade of editorial experience, helping authors refine their manuscripts and strengthen their voices through developmental and narrative-focused editing. Whether I’m designing a branching questline, crafting brand messaging, appearing on camera to represent a project, or guiding a novel toward its final draft, my work always centers on clarity, emotion, and impact.

I’m a Women in Games Ambassador and active champion of DEI practices within the industry. At Hypixel Studios, I founded a women and femme-identifying identity group dedicated to support, mentorship, and empowerment. I’m passionate about mentorship and regularly speak to students, studios, and convention audiences about storytelling, career pathways in games, and building inclusive creative spaces.

At heart, I’m a fantasy writer. When I’m not developing worlds professionally, I’m reading them, writing them, tending my garden, gaming, or spending time with my husband, daughter, and our lively crew of pets.

Story is the throughline. Everything else is just the medium.
