A Bay Area native, New Orleans enthusiast, and Virginia resident, I spent a brief chapter in the picture-perfect town of Pleasanton--a spot that could pass for a simulation. My stories blend the eerie magic of haunts I've roamed with the strange allure of urban fantasy, though I occasionally wander into realms of high fantasy when the ancient mysteries call. I have two precious cats, Quasar and Nova, who reside with my ex--a long-distance arrangement they graciously agreed to. These two celestial rascals still seem to leave their paw prints on every page I write. When I'm not crafting modern-day tales of enchantment, you'll find me lost in old maps, hunting for secret doors, or plotting my next escape into worlds that lie just beyond the veil.
