I am an independently published author of over twenty fiction titles. A former elementary school teacher, I began writing for middle graders but eventually expanded to adult and young adult audiences. I have written in the historical fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, and romance genres.

My involvement in the self-publishing community since 2010 as beta reader, manuscript “critiquer,” and mentor to new authors led me to pursue professional development classes and earn certification as a copyeditor and a book editor. I’ve been working professionally since 2021 and have helped dozens of authors hone their craft, polish their manuscripts, and realize their dream of publication. One of my greatest delights is watching new writers blossom and mature in their craft.
