About Me

Who am I?

Whose am I?

Who am I called to be? (What up, Jesuit-educated friends)

Hi, my name is Loan (yes, it’s pronounced like that word or you can read this).

Thanks for checking out my website! I’m an assistant editor at Simon & Schuster’s Atria Books imprint by day. By night—and let’s be honest, into the early morning—I’m a fiction writer trying to collect as many rejections as possible. I hold an MFA in fiction writing from Fairfield University’s low-residency program.

My contemporary YA novel will be published by Simon Pulse in Spring 2020.

I also run Young to Publishing’s writing chapter, write for Off the Shelf, and copyedit articles for Get Lit.
