I’m an avid pop culture lover and am looking for books that entertain and inspire. I represent all genres, with the exception of children’s picture books, and I’m especially interested in female and LGBTQ voices. I’m a graduate of the Screen Arts & Cultures program at The University of Michigan and have been at Paradigm since 2011.
