My creative interests began with hoping to be an artist, evolving to creating “newspapers” for my family,

and eventually maturing into my gifts, knowing writing was at the core. Wherever else I may dabble, writing is what flows out of me. Words have the power to enamor, inspire and compel when used well, and that is the effort I pursue each time my fingers hit a keyboard or wrap around a pen. I also aspire to work that is thought-provoking and conversational; I believe empathy is at the core of what our world needs, and I hope anyone who reads my writing is willing and open to learn that art with me.

Writing aside, I am a nerd for journalism and a snob

for coffee. Coziness is a high value of mine, as is talking to strangers and creating seasonal Spotify playlists.

I relish little delights like wildflower bouquets and eating breakfast with friends. My roots are in Northeast Ohio, but I currently reside in a tiny apartment in downtown Lexington, Kentucky.
