About

I grew up in a military family, hopping from place to place and learning to build little worlds of my own wherever we landed. I’ve dreamed of writing my own books for years, but it took the gentle encouragement of my amazing husband to finally make me take the leap. I’ve always been creative, usually with a pencil or paintbrush in hand, and writing has become this unexpected but welcome counterbalance. It helps me keep my brain in check and my creativity from burning out.

​

I’m also neurodivergent, which means I sometimes fall into spectacular deep‑dive research spirals—the kind where I look up three hours later surrounded by tabs, notes, and realize "Oh no, I need sleep/food/coffee/sunshine."

 

Outside of writing, I’ve run two half‑marathons, earned a black belt in Shao‑lin kung fu (Neo would be proud), and developed a talent for collecting trivia‑night‑winning facts no one asked for.

Thank you for taking the time to read about me. I'm excited to bring you into my world of stories and art.
