About

6 members set this agent as a Favorite.

Alyssa joined WME in 2022 after serving as the head of Paradigm Agency’s Book Publishing division, where she worked for nearly 15 years. She represents a wide array of categories: adult, young adult, and middle-grade fiction, as well as platform-driven nonfiction ranging from prescriptive to narrative, illustrated food/lifestyle, humor, and everything in between. She has brokered deals for many bestselling authors including Jessica Knoll, Jessica Goodman, Karin Tanabe, Billie Eilish, Tracee Ellis Ross, the Betches, Mara Wilson, Ali Maffucci, and Katie Sturino. Alyssa is passionate about working with dynamic authors who change the conversation and have propulsive stories that resonate emotionally. She loves fiction with an edge or a great romantic arc and prides herself on unearthing new talent and helping her clients realize their potential. Above all, she is looking for books that really make you want to turn the pages. Originally from Philadelphia, she lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two kids.
