Sydney—a white person with blue eyes and brown hair with green tips, wearing a red sweater and cow earrings—sitting in front of a bookshelf that’s overflowing with books

Hi, I’m Sydney! (They/Them)

I’m the author of THE LOUDEST SILENCE (7/30/2024 - Holiday House) and SOMEONE TO DAYDREAM ABOUT (2026 - FSG Macmillan)!

I’m a Deaf, Queer, and Disabled writer who is passionate about helping underrepresented communities feel seen through my work. I currently live in Portland, Oregon with two dogs and more books than I have room for!

I’m represented by Emily Forney at BookEnds Literary Agency.
