Mackenzie Reed

Mackenzie Reed’s love of storytelling grew during her time at Nazareth College, where she received her BA in Communications and Media and a double minor in Business Management and the Entertainment Industry. During this time, she also rediscovered her love of reading and began writing her own novels. She’s invigorated by the process of starting with an idea and breathing life into it until it matches the vision in her mind. Right now, she’s found a cozy nook in the space of Young Adult, where she adores writing about fierce teens and the chaotic messes they get themselves into. When she’s not writing, she’s usually winging her eyeliner, hanging out with her family (they’re cool, ok?), or on the hunt for the best slice of pizza in town. [2025 Jan 22]
