I jumped into writing with both feet. One day, as I returned home from my former job as a fifth-grade teacher, I found myself brimming with words. They poured onto the page in the form of a historical mystery. The words didn’t stop at one book, and two years later I find myself with seven completed novels and a handful of works in progress including urban fantasy, high fantasy, romance, and more mysteries. Oh, and a toddler, though he is unrelated to the writing.

 

I was raised on Hercule Poirot, Sherlock Holmes, and Harry Potter. I live and breathe by my Kindle Unlimited subscription. I love researching those random details you didn't realize were important. I write the books I wish I could find, with characters that are people and not trope, immersive storytelling, and plots that leave you wondering what will happen next at the end of every chapter.

Things I love: Chocolate covered anything, Malcolm Gladwell audiobooks, travel, analyzing people based on their zodiac signs (Aquarius, baby!), and hard-to-kill plants. 

Things I don't love: Politics, when characters smirk every other page, obnoxiously loud children's toys, broken nails, and when people want me to taste their food.

I am currently seeking representation.
