I am a polystylistic writer who has been on the wild journey known as ‘writing’ since I was 8 years old. At this point in my professional career, I’ve written and edited a lot. You name it, I’ve probably tried it. Each style has only made me better, and I love to translate lessons learned from one category to another.

I have the biggest formalized exposure to creative writing. I was first published as a young author in Teenink Magazine. My piece A Green Umbrella won an Editor’s Choice Award in 2012 and the Fiction Award in 2013. I went on to publish multiple pieces as a teenager and young adult in poetry & short fiction. I was too young and inexperienced in content management to neatly organize my records, so unfortunately lots of those pieces have been deleted or taken down over time. I am now working on releasing my early, previously published work with some fun goodies for subscribers. I took a break from seeking publication to work on a new novel series, the Chronicles of the Gandiva. If you like fantasy/sci-fi and piracy, you can read more about that project and others here.

As for my career - it reflects the same concepts as my writing. I’ve never been afraid to redefine myself, pivot when needed, or scale what is working. What ties my career together are the things I’ve always cared about - the joy of discovery, and making the world a better place for all.

If you’ve read this far, you have my heartfelt thanks. I love to connect with people. Some great conversation starters for me: animals (did you see all the dogs on my website? I’m always surrounded by them in video games and real life) reading, writing, technology, or what brings you joy and why.
