From my conservative, Christian upbringing to an and out and proud lesbian, I write what I’m passionate about and that’s humanity, kindness, tolerance, love—and usually with healthy doses of laughter! As a single mom to two incredible teen daughters, one with Down syndrome, I’m inspired to write female-driven stories, celebrating diversity and inclusion, featuring characters with different disabilities. I aim to challenge and compel audiences in meaningful ways while entertaining with engaging characters and heartwarming stories.
About Me

Stories are more than entertaining, they are magical. They can transport us. Writing, I’m awed at the discovery of characters as their stories come to life. I hope that my works will provide audiences that same enjoyment.
