I began to write as a child in Shaker Heights, OH, and never managed to put down my pen. At Columbia University, I studied creative writing and American studies. I recently graduated with an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Nevada, Reno.

Today, I live in Washington, DC, with an extraordinary community of friends. D.J. Rosenblum Becomes the G.O.A.T. is my debut novel.

Fun Facts:

• I wrote my first “book” at age 7: The Lion Girl. It followed a girl who could transform into… I think you can guess.

• My friends know me for my baking —— especially challah and cookies. I’ve sent them across continents!

• I’m obsessed with elephants. On my first book tour, in 2025, I saw 11 baby elephants across the United States!
