Narrative Editor | Memoir & Personal Essays
I work with memoir writers to shape lived experience into compelling, cohesive narratives. Through developmental and line editing, I help bring structure into focus, refine the prose, and shape how your story unfolds on the page.
Memoir asks for more than technical refinement. It asks for discernment—where to expand, where to compress, and what the story is really about.
I approach editing as both craft and stewardship. Personal narrative requires structural rigor, but it also asks for care. My role is not to rewrite your story, but to help you uncover its architecture, strengthen its emotional throughline, and shape it into work that feels fully your own.
