My Manuscript Wish List®
Hi, it’s nice to meet you!
I am a graduate from the University of Washington with two B.A.s in English Literature and Cinema/Media Studies. I joined KOMM as an assistant in 2022, which fostered a nuts and bolts understanding of the process from start to finish, including translation deals, book deals, merchandise deals, and comparing contracts. I love graphic design, and building dynamic visual pitches that bring out the best of the brand.
My Wishlist (last updated February 2026)
Picture Books: I am slowing down on acquiring picture books, but always love to see silly stories full of heart. I am only open to author/illustrated picture books at this time.
Graphic Novels: I am actively acquiring graphic novels for all ages! Genres I’m always especially eager to see include diverse romance, horror (especially entry level on the younger side!), humor, light fantasy, and coming of age. Genre mashups encouraged! I am NOT open to scripts without an artist attached.
Prose: I am selectively acquiring YA and Adult novels on a case by case basis. Genres I am most open to right now include speculative horror/thriller, romance, and queer lit (I’d love to see more queer retellings of classic narratives / tropes in all genres!). In general, I love to see manuscripts that push the boundaries of the format or include multi-modal components (text messages, emails, diagrams, etc.).
In General: think of me for horror and queer themes for all ages!
ABSOLUTELY NO A.I.
Fun facts about me:
I split the year between Seattle, WA and Pasadena, CA.
I teach summer school art and writing courses to elementary schoolers.
I am a cat person! I have a very sassy tortie and an equally particular black cat with a white locket (black cats are not bad luck!!)
