Headshot_K_Wortner.jpg

I’m currently immersed in Writing and Applied Arts at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, with a concentration in copyediting and publishing. As a proud member of Sigma Tau Delta, the International English Honor Society, I’m committed to literary excellence and the transformative power of language. On campus, I serve as a contributing writer and editor for The Quill, our bimonthly digital magazine that celebrates voice and vision from across disciplines. I also work as an editor, writer, and photographer for Northern Lights, our annual print and online publication, where I help shape stories that blend image, insight, and emotion.

 

Beyond the university, my work appears in MockingOwl Roost, an online literary magazine where I contribute reviews spanning film, media, books, television, and games—sharpening my critical lens and deepening my love of storytelling across genres. My writing can also be found in the Madison Journal of Literary Criticism and Sheepshead Review, further grounding my practice in diverse editorial and creative communities.
