For me, writing has always been about making stories both meaningful and beautiful. I’ve had the joy of writing over 35 published children’s books—stories that give young readers words for the world, spark their imaginations, and give them a taste for a life truly worth living.

But storytelling doesn’t stop at books. With over five years in marketing and copywriting, I’ve learned how the right words can shape brands, create connections, and move people. Writing isn’t just about what’s on the page—it’s about impact.

One of my greatest joys? Teaching. Leading writing workshops across the country, I’ve helped aspiring authors refine their craft, gain confidence in their voices, and transform ideas into polished manuscripts. Seeing someone go from hesitation to holding their finished work? That never gets old.

At the heart of it all—writing, marketing, mentoring—is a desire to help others tell their stories. I know what it’s like to have a passion for writing but not know where to start. I know how exciting that moment is when becoming an author actually feels possible. And I know that with the right encouragement and direction, anyone can grow into a storyteller who makes a difference.

You have what it takes to become a writer: that is, someone who sees the world in its beauty and says it back with grace. All it takes is dedication, a willingness to embrace the mess, and a couple tips from someone who’s been there, too.

Writing is more than putting words on the page—it’s about discovering the world through language and shaping stories that matter.
