About Me

I have lived in the Lehigh Valley area in Eastern Pennsylvania my whole life.  I spend my days with my handsome husband and two fantastic kiddos, Rylan and Sydney, my three cats, a dog and a hamster.  I am an elementary teacher by day and LOVE reading to my students, kids and anyone who wants to listen.  I have way too many picture books that don't even fit on my bookshelves.  I am also a graphic designer and enjoy the challenge of creating digital and print products that help a business or group shine.

 

Outside of the career world, you can find me outdoors, enjoying new restaurants and making art of all kinds.

 

I have loved art, drawing and painting in particular, for as long as I can remember.  When the pandemic hit and I realized we'd all be cozy at home for awhile we all had to learn to find our own space and ways to stimulate our minds independently.  I dug out my watercolors and drawing tools and revived my lifelong passion of writing a children's book.  Needless to say, I am hooked!  I love everything about the book making and publishing process and hope to inspire other young writers to share their stories with the world!
