In her rejection note, "I represent adult fiction and non-fiction projects exclusively for the Christian market (CBA). (As a newer literary agent, I am aware that some listing sites haven't updated their information with the types of projects that I represent and I hope that updates will be completed in the near future.)

Though we do our best, QueryTracker can not guarantee the accuracy of any information provided.
An agent listing on QueryTracker is not an endorsement or recommendation of that agent by QueryTracker.
Before contacting an agent, authors should verify and assess the agent's requirements and suitability by visiting the agent's website(s), and becoming familiar with ways to spot and avoid bad agents. A good place to start is Writers Beware, a watch group that helps inform and protect authors from shady practices.
7/23 rejection email received.
Barb was very prompt in her response. She informed me that she deals exclusively with authors whose manuscripts are geared toward the Christian audience. . She offered me advice on my word count which was approximately 65000 words. She stated that she was intrigued, but suggested that I add to my novel to get within the normal count of 70000-80000 words and said once I’ve done that, maybe another agent at their agency would be interested.
I appreciate her feedback and will be adding and submitting to additional agents.
I only wished I knew about her when I did my first book, which was a Christian book.
