I have been writing for a little over 10 years now. It has been my dream to publish a novel and I am thrilled that it is finally happening. When I was younger I was frequently told that I was “in my own little world”. Well, now I am inviting you all into it. I hope you enjoy my book as much as I enjoyed creating it.

When I am not writing I am working as a counselor. I have a Masters of Arts in Counseling and work as a crisis counselor. My undergraduate degree is in International Business where I spent a lot of time studying culture. I still have a passion for cultural learning and I brought that passion to my novel.

A few of my favorite things:

Favorite Movie: The Sound of Music

Favorite Food: Lays Potato Chips

Favorite Sports Team: Green Bay Packers (I’m a shareholder #gopackgo)

There isn’t a sporting event that I wouldn’t watch live. At a minimum, they are good for people watching.

I average about 3 country music concerts a year. Artists I haven’t seen live that I hope to someday: Billy Currington and Luke Combs. I also hope to catch a few legends before they really retire: Shania Twain, Reba, and the King, George Strait.

The best concert: Eric Church. I have seen him twice and it was amazing both times. Garth Brooks is also amazing; he brings the most energy to his shows.

Hobbies: Reading, writing (obviously), running, volleyball, lifting weights, crafting and napping (yea, I’m a napper).

Biggest Pet Peeve: Gum smacking
