About Me

My Work

I am  a STORYTELLER.


I'm also an innovation consultant for a tech company, where storytelling is a big part of my work.


I live a bi-urban life with my husband, commuting between New York’s West Village and Philadelphia, where home is a converted factory-warehouse in Philly’s historic Brewerytown, just a half block from where the first ever interracial baseball game was played in 1869.  


I received my M.L.A. in Creative Writing & Literature from the Harvard University Extension School. My first novel, Inside Henry Cato, is forthcoming in 2026. I've also completed a collection of short stories titled They Die Different Here. I was a featured screenwriter at New York’s 26th Annual IFP Market for my original screenplay, Confessions of a Dead Woman. My screenplay Killing Bull was awarded first place in the Screenwriters Online Master Class.

My Community

After many years in San Francisco and New York, my husband and I bought a partially refurbished warehouse/factory in Philadelphia at the start of the 2020 pandemic. In addition to finding inspiration for our own creative endeavors, we house a maker studio and gallery. When we're not writing, painting or building in Philly, you can find us in the West Village and other parts of New York City breathing in the energy and vitality that almost no other place on earth can deliver.

What Inspires Me

I write stories about ordinary people facing extraordinary challenges, and how humans overcome adversity and the feeling of being an outsider by remaining true to themselves. I am inspired by creators who take risks, by crazy impossible ideas, and by my husband, Paul Wood.
