A little bit of background

I am a writer, artist, and amateur book-binder. I have previously worked at New York Review of Books, in the Publications Department at The Whitney Museum of American Art, and at Phaidon, a publisher of illustrated books. I am currently working primarily at McNally Jackson, where I sell stationery and lead a Bygone Gothic Book Club. At WashU, I earned Highest Distinction of honors, double-majoring in English Literature and Communication Design. There, I served as the layout editor for Spires Literary Magazine, a managing editor of Student Life Newspaper, and president of Creative Writing Cafe.

In my free time, you can catch me exploring new creative projects and drinking lots of boba and coffee.
