Award-Winning Children's Author

Welcome!

Welcome to my site! I’m so glad to see you. I hope you enjoy looking around, and learning about my writing journey. My two literary loves are humorous poetry and nonfiction— especially biographies. If I can find someone that kids don’t know about, but should, I am all over that story. There are so many unsung heroes out there—so many wonderful role models that kids can learn from. I want to bring those stories to life.
