Passionate about championing authors through the entire lifecycle of their careers, Kelsey combines editorial insight with a decade of marketing expertise to help her clients navigate both craft and career. Before entering publishing, she helmed marketing strategy and content development for agencies working with major brands like AAA, Dannon, and Target.

She began as an editor, helping writers shape their work through developmental feedback, query critiques, and revision guidance. During internships with Brent Taylor during his Triada tenure in 2024 and Creative Media Agency (CMA) in 2025, she gained hands-on experience in manuscript evaluation, submissions, and client development.

For the last year, Kelsey has been building her client list as an agent, focusing on commercial fiction across YA and adult. An editorial agent, she loves helping writers clarify the shape of their book while providing big picture feedback and actionable steps for revisions. Solving that puzzle is her sweet spot. 

She resides in Philadelphia, but travels frequently with her partner, a pilot. When she’s home, you can find her rowing along the Schuylkill River, watching pro cycling, hunting down the best croissants, trying to pet every dog in sight, and drinking enough coffee to make Lorelai Gilmore smile proudly.
