I’m a writer living in California’s Santa Cruz mountains. I write fiction and nonfiction picture books, and I’m working on my first chapter book. I want all my stories to engage young children, make them smile or laugh, and help them recognize and understand some new things about themselves and others.
When I’m not working on a story, I do a lot of reading, a fair amount of knitting, and perhaps not enough practicing on my drums. I am a member of SCBWI and Inked Voices, and I have taken several workshops through Boyds Mills, including attending the 2024 PJ Library Picture Book Summer Camp.
