Priscilla did the developmental editing for one of my most difficult to write books. Priscilla’s gift is in guiding rather than directing. Asking the right questions to arrive where you’re headed without forcing your hand. Regardless of what you’re writing, she is gifted at elevating it while honoring your own voice within it.

Some of my favorite writing spaces have been curated by Priscilla. Whether it’s co-writing, coaching conversations, or workshops, she always brings fresh insight, an innate curiosity, and resources that perfectly suit my needs.

As my editor, Priscilla was the first person I let read my first book. She used gentle, yet direct, guidance to help me find my voice, to integrate my message, and to help me see what the reader saw. She kept up with my project while the world tried to survive a pandemic. She celebrated my wins and made me feel seen and heard. I would hire her again, and again, and again.

It’s a pleasure working with Priscilla. She is excellent at building a framework for online learning, working independently to get work done timely, and producing a comprehensive final product that wows students. ...one of Priscilla’s most significant impacts on our organization was establishing a roadmap for all future courses. This has established a baseline for ongoing growth in our business.
