I was raised in the small town of Jacksonville, Illinois. This is where my love for storytelling first began. I now live in the state of Oregon.
From a young age, I was captivated by the power of words. Whether diving into the passionate twists of a romance or the chilling suspense of a thriller, I found comfort, escape, and inspiration in stories. That love for reading slowly turned into a passion for writing, one that has only grown with time. For me, writing is more than a craft; it’s a way to connect, to feel deeply, and to explore the raw, beautiful parts of what it means to be human.
When I’m not writing, you can find me curled up with a good book, wandering the Oregon coast, or chatting with Tiger like he’s my roommate. (He is, really.) I believe in quiet mornings, handwritten letters, and the magic of finding the right words at just the right time.
