Meet The Editor

Hi, I’m Kourtney

I’m a lifelong bookworm who loves everything from high fantasy to historical romances to cozy mysteries.

With an M.A. in psychology from Pepperdine University, I take an analytical, solution-based approach to editorial work. And I absolutely thrive on diving deep into your characters.

I love working with writers of all levels, helping them feel prepared and confident going into their next round of edits.

I’m a member of the Editorial Freelancers Association and frequently take classes to further develop and hone my skills.

When I’m away from my desk, I can be found on a tennis or pickleball court, reading books, or wrangling my four boxers, Kylo, Maisie, Finn, and Rey.

See what my clients are saying.
