He shares “I have worked alongside Susan Golomb since 2023, providing editorial and business support to her clients who include Jonathan Franzen, Rachel Kushner, Vauhini Vara, Nell Zink, Yvon Chouinard, Danielle Trussoni, and Angie Kim. I have worked particularly closely with William Vollmann, Hallie Elizabeth Newton, Sophie Madeline Dess, Nancy Foley, and Imbolo Mbue.I am also the founding editor of Notch, a literary and arts magazine based in New York and Paris. Short-form fiction has a special place in my heart, and I would love to use my industry connections to place clientsÕ work in top magazines.Prior to joining Writers House, I co-founded a venture-backed outdoor gear company, worked as a small-town journalist, exhumed bones on an archeological dig in Mauritius, and interned on the foreign exchange team at Bridgewater. I grew up between New York City and Northern California, and attended Stanford University, where I studied Comparative Literature and Philosophy.”
