Every Story Starts Somewhere. Some kids collected rocks and climbed trees. I sat beneath them with a book in my lap, collecting stories instead. As a child, I discovered that books could open doors to worlds far bigger than the one around me. What began as a love of reading eventually grew into a love of writing.

Today, I create stories for readers of all ages—from humorous middle-grade adventures to young adult historical fantasy. My characters may come from very different worlds, but they often share one thing in common: they're searching for courage, connection, and a place where they belong.

When I'm not writing, you'll usually find me with a good book, a cup of coffee, watching the world go by, or dreaming up new worlds and characters. I write for the dreamers, the misfits, the curious minds, and anyone who has ever wondered if they belong. Welcome. I'm glad you're here.
