About
Creating communities of artists, starting conversations around culture, and helping great books find their readers are my passions. I am on a constant quest to learn about the world—I travel nonstop, I ask too many questions, and I can't stop reading.
Dreams
Empower emerging authors whose voices deserve to be heard, create nurturing spaces for writers to develop their best work, bring readers together in genuine and exciting ways, create innovative experiences around books and stories, launch a writers’ residency program, design and build a solo traveler experience in cities around the world.
Travel
The only thing I love more than reading, is reading while traveling. I’ve explored most corners of the globe; highlights include Oman, Georgia, Argentina, Nicaragua, and Iceland.
Up next: Japan, Mongolia, Nepal.
PS: If you’re also interested in creating a community of readers and writers that meets in different places around the world, DM me.
Writing
I write a Substack that gives advice to writers, talks about books and art, and writes love letters to authors.
