About Me
I am a literary agent at Ross Yoon, a top nonfiction agency in DC, where I help CEOs, top doctors, leading academics, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists, and other experts refine their stories and find publishers abroad excited to bring them to new audiences.
As the agency's foreign rights director, I brokers clients’ contracts in more than 50 territories. As its in-house editor, I play a major role in helping all of Ross Yoon's clients shape their proposals into the sharpest, most commercial works possible.
Separately, I sometimes take on select clients referred to me by publishers and previous clients across all genres. Those editorial consulting and copyediting projects include memoirs, mysteries, women's fiction, techno-thrillers, and translations.
I've worked in publishing since finishing an MA in Renaissance literature in 2011. Before that, I taught English to gifted high school students on a Fulbright fellowship in South Korea.
In my time off, I'm a recovering academic who occasionally relapses. I have a soft spot for Victorian novels, adaptations of Shakespeare, narrative nonfiction, New Haven–style pizza, and terrible puns.
