My Story

I was a designer and teacher by trade before having children, and I’ve found that motherhood has blessed me with stories to tell. Thus, I am pursuing becoming a children’s book author/illustrator. I love the process, and am learning a ton!

I am an active member in SCBWI’s Houston chapter and run the North Houston Social Group. I am also blessed to be a CASA and substitute teacher in my children’s school district.

I am currently working on several manuscripts and book dummies, as well as my portfolio. I would love to have you follow along on my journey.
