I live in Cincinnati, OH with my amazing geeky husband, our three genius children, and our two dogs (who have earned the affectionate nicknames of Chubbs and Stinks).

I have been lucky enough to do many exciting things in my life.  In 2006 I was able to quit the daily grind of my office job and become a full time artist and photographer.  Though I always enjoyed my career choice it wasn’t the job I had dreamed of since I was a child.  I was always writing poetry and short stories as a child but when I was 14 I wrote what I thought would be my first novel (in all honesty is was more novella size) about Queen Gwen and the Arthurian Legend.  The book ended up tucked away in my folders, occasionally to be brought out and remind me of that “one day” dream. Life happened as it usually does and though I continued to jot down book ideas I spent my next 18 year exploring other paths.  

My husband always encouraged me to follow my dream and try my hand at writing.  In 2011, I found myself urning to for a new challenge and scared as I was to put myself out there I sat down and focused on one of my ideas.  To my astonishment in two weeks time fifty thousand words poured out of me.  I revealed the results to my husband and his glow was all the confidence I needed to keep pushing.  

Book 1, Sacred Bloodlines of The Guardians was met with positive reviews and Book 2 in the series, Cursed, has been meeting the same favor since released in April 2012.  There is so much more to come so stay tuned.
