MY STORY

Strolling the streets of Key West by day, weaving fantasy worlds by night. Crafting heroines who transform their wounds into wings.


Born and raised in the mountains of Pennsylvania, I found my earliest inspirations in the forests and spring creeks of my childhood home. After college I found my way to the sun-drenched paradise of Key West, Florida. When I'm not creating magical worlds filled with adventure and romance, you can find me fly fishing in the crystal waters of the Keys. My debut novel, The Light Breaker, emerged from a rediscovered passion for writing that had lain dormant until loss stirred something profound within me, reminding me that life is short and reconnecting me with the joy of creation I'd known in my youth.

The journey of my protagonist mirrors my own in many ways – she doesn't begin as a formidable force but discovers her strength through confronting adversity. My experiences with addiction, anxiety, and the fundamental human struggles of connection and belonging have deeply informed my writing, as I believe the most compelling fantasy is grounded in emotional truths. I'm fascinated by the alchemy that transforms vulnerability into power and isolation into community.

In crafting romantic fantasy, I've found the perfect canvas to explore how hearts heal and souls find courage – often in the most unexpected places and through the most unlikely connections. Through my writing, I hope to transport readers to worlds where magic exists not only in fantastical elements but in the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of love.
