Hi, I’m Madi.

My mission is to help authors construct new worlds grounded in reality or conjured from imagination. I value lighthearted reads as much as those that present a grander purpose, and I aim to represent authors who capture the human experience through love and adventure.

I’m an agent who gets to know her clients professionally and personally to support our working relationship and each author’s intent behind their books. I’m happy to be a sounding board as much as an advisor, and authors should feel comfortable tossing out every clever or outlandish idea they devise.

My Approach

Representation

I believe an agent-author relationship is fundamental to success. To ensure we’re the right fit, I want to know why you wrote your book, how you envision success, and the dynamic you hope to have with your agent.

Editorial Style

I take a thorough approach when working on your manuscript. While the final outcome is derived from your creativity, expect to brainstorm, potentially work on the plot, and have a running draft littered with tracked changes.
