I love interviewing! If you have a book coming out in the next year, hit me up to moderate/host your book event. I’m into a variety of non-fiction topics—tech, science, crime, spirituality. I’m also happy to lead Q&As for fiction.

Readings 📖
Host or reader, fiction or non-fiction. I have a memoir coming out in 2027 about New Age cults and skepticism, but I also have plenty of short stories I’d love to read. I’ve hosted many readings through my writing retreat, Desert Salon.
