I’ve been a literary agent with JABberwocky Literary Agency since 2012, where I specialize in science fiction, fantasy, and romance for adult and YA readers. Before moving to New York, I lived in Sacramento, where I received by English degree from California State University, Sacramento. Sacramento was my first taste of living in “the big city” (yes, truly, and also that’s hilarious to me now that I live in NYC). I was lucky enough to do a semester in Perth, Western Australia, where I took advantage of my time there to travel Australia’s west coast and and avoid all of the poisonous creatures. (Western Australia is pretty much Nevada with fewer mountains and more kangaroos.)
I enjoy literature of all types, but my heart belongs to speculative fiction. That’s almost a given, as Anne McCaffrey’s Dragonriders of Pern series and Mercedes Lackey’s The Last Herald-Mage trilogy were my first exposures to both adult fiction and the fantasy genre. Today, I particularly enjoy SFF that explores cross-genre and weird spaces, but I’ll always have a soft spot for traditional epic fantasy.
