My Story

Welcome—and thank you for visiting!

I’ve had the privilege of traveling to 23 countries and exploring most of the United States. From the cobblestone streets of Europe to the icy beauty of Scandinavia, the vibrant culture of Jamaica, and the quiet forests of my home state of Oregon, each place has left its mark on me—and on my writing.

Growing up in Oregon gave me a deep love of nature, imagination, and storytelling. I believe every state holds a little piece of Oregon in it—that sense of mystery, wonder, and untamed spirit. My stories are shaped by both the places I’ve seen and the people I’ve met along the way, blending real-life experiences with the vivid dreams of a lifelong storyteller.

Readers often tell me my books keep them in suspense, make them laugh, and leave them wanting more—and that’s exactly why I write.

Thank you for stopping by. I’m truly grateful you’re here. I hope you find something in my work that stays with you long after the last page.
