Kayla is the publicist for Ballast Books and its children’s imprint, Blue Balloon Books. She is no stranger to the publishing world, as she’s worked in publicity, marketing, social media, and design. An avid reader, writer, and plant enthusiast, her off-hours are spent hoarding books, editing her fantasy manuscript, and caring for her house and patio plants. A lover of language, Kayla often practices learning new languages and has been blessed to have lived in several states as well as abroad. Kayla studied a writing degree at the Savannah College of Art and Design. It was there that her true love for writing and literature was fueled, and it’s carried and comforted her throughout the years since.
