Agent Bio

Trinica Sampson-Vera is passionate about championing diverse voices.

She graduated from Antioch College with a degree in Creative Writing and French.

After several editorial internships during college, she moved to Austin and found an unexpected home in social services, where she worked for five years as a case manager to those experiencing chronic homelessness.

Prior to beginning at New Leaf, she worked as an independent editor with Salt & Sage Books and Writing Diversely.

She loves adventurous character-driven stories with largely emotional stakes and stories where queer characters find happy endings.
