As an agent, she has represented bestsellers and books that have won notices including a Caldecott Honor, a Newbery Honor, Sibert Medal and Honor, Stonewall Medals, APALA silver and gold, American Indian Youth Literature Honors, a National Jewish Book Award finalist, a Schneider Award, and multiple Edgar, Sydney Taylor, Boston Globe-Horn Book, Amricas, Golden Kite, Jane Addams, Margaret Wise Brown, and Orbis Pictus awards or honors, among others. <\/p>\n

In YA, she seeks sweeping fantasy in richly imagined, non-European-inspired worlds, along with high-concept thrillers. She’s also open to well-researched, fast-paced narrative nonfiction for MG and YA. Across all categories, she prioritizes authors from marginalized communities and values precise, layered writing where every word earns its place, creating an immersive and compelling reading experience.<\/p>\n
