Author rating is picking up ratings from other books by same name author

I recently became a new author and obtained my Goodreads author profile. However there is another author with my same name. I asked for those books to not be included when my profile was created, and it looks like they were left out. However, it appears that my author rating is still including the reviews from the other author with the same name. For example, below I show that I only have 1 distinct work with a 5.0 rating. However my profile shows an average rating of 3.5 with 2 ratings (because the book from the author with the same name has one review with a 2.0 rating). So somehow, the system is including that rating into my author profile. Can this be fixed? Thank you - Cory

This is what my author profile currently shows:
Cory Calvin
Average rating 3.50 · 2 ratings · 2 reviews

Showing 1 distinct work:
I Almost Became Me: A Memoir
5.00 avg rating — 1 rating

It should say "Average rating 5.00 - 1 rating - 1 review"
