All my life I’ve loved stories. As a child, I spent hours lost in the pages of my favorite books, fueling my love of travel, adventure, and learning.
Now, I’m bringing my lifetime of experience into the stories I write. Stories about strong women tackling obstacles with family, community, and career. Stories to inspire, enlighten and entertain.
When not writing, I can be found eating my husband’s delicious cooking, on my next outdoor adventure, or drinking tea in my garden. Actually, I drink tea anytime anywhere.
As food feeds the body, stories nourish the soul.
