I am a devoted wife and mom, a ride-or-die girl’s girl who champions women, craves adventure, chases big dreams with a sharp wit, and does my best to navigate it all with grace.

I have been writing my whole life and am a published author of Romance and Women’s Fiction - with a sprinkle of the Metaphysical.

I grew up traveling the world, even living in China, Japan, and Australia. These experiences began my journey, at a young age, of questioning all things, big and small. My inquisitive nature and desire for knowledge have continued to this day, prompting me to read, research, and write about different points of view, theories, and ideas about life and the universe. I’ve even had the amazing fortune to connect with some of the world’s leading spiritual practitioners—first as mentors for my writing, and now as treasured friends.

My lighter wheelhouses are satire, pop-culture references, girls’ nights, travel, and espresso martinis. I am a lover of (almost) all music, though 90’s East Coast rap and 2000’s bangers are my dog-whistles.

But it’s my husband and kids (yes, even the teenagers) that get me through life. When I’m not nose deep in a good book or squirreled away in my office, you can find me carpool karaoke-ing with a plethora of mortified children in tow, cooking our Italian family faves - and rolling my eyes when the kids ask for Chick-fil-a instead, or snuggling on the couch, binging the latest show with my better half.

I love watching the pink North Carolina sunsets from my porch in the evenings, and not one day goes by when I miss the apocalyptic northern winters. But even in spite of its dreary cold and snow, hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I am a tried-and-true Steelers girl for life.
