Born and raised in Hell's Kitchen, New York City, Regina safeguards a deep, personal passion for her city and all of its history. She holds a PhD in Urban Education, a Master's Degree in African American Studies, as well as a couple of other graduate degrees. As an academic and writer, she is always drawn to the artistic. Her literary interests are broad and span across shelves that sometimes surprise the mind.
As a prior literary agent, she has always enjoyed helping writers develop their projects and watching them come to life. As Editorial Director, she works with writers and agents to help them expand ideas, consider techniques and approaches, and tinkers with craft.
When she's not working on other people's manuscripts, she can be found teaching, reading anything from comics to cookbooks, hunting through public library shelves, and used book bins, and working on her own creative projects.
