Writer of fantasy and fiction because life is too unreal to see anything but magic. I exist somewhere between the ink on the page and imagination. 

My works typically include belonging, found families, romance, adventure, and hope in unlikely circumstances. I'm intrigued by the nuances and ironies in life. I want to know things, but the more I write, the more I don't know.

I tell stories to give shape to things only our imaginations can conjure. I believe in the complexities of the human experience and I know there's so much to explore. I invite you to explore it with me.
