Thanks for being curious enough to swing by my "About" page. The abridged version is that I've always been a writer. You know, one of those avid journalers, long IG captions, short stories on my laptop kind of people. It wasn't until this last year that I graduated from oversharer to novelist.

 

The longer story includes a life path that winds through a thousand heartbreaks, a total worldview collapse, and a dance with cancer.

​

I hold government and international relations degrees, specializing in Middle East studies. I spent the first 15 years of my professional life working in the nonprofit world, specifically with refugees, families in poverty, and education-driven projects in the Middle East.

​

My life path has made me a combination of compassionate and headstrong.

​

If I'm not writing or doing nonprofit work, I'm probably up to some wild shit - like trying a new gluten-free recipe, getting lost in a book world, or watching TV with my partner.

​

I spill lots of personal stories over on my blog and in my newsletter. If there's anything else you're curious about, send me a note. <3
