Award-Winning Fantasy Writer

I write fantasy stories that spotlight fierce, capable women shaped by grit, heart, and the wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest.

My in-progress fantasy novel Mountain of Stars is a finalist in the 2025 Pacific Northwest Writer’s Association Contest. In addition, my thriller novel, The Tract, won first place in the Mystery/Thriller category of the 2018 Colorado Gold Rush Literary Contest.

Whether I’m crafting tales of rebellion and resilience or navigating the twists of a suspenseful plot, my stories are rooted in a sense of place and a passion for strong female leads who refuse to be sidelined.

When I’m not writing, you’ll likely find me wandering through the forests of the Pacific Northwest with my family, chasing new adventures, and quietly gathering inspiration for whatever story comes next.
