I write stories for children and teens, both contemporary and contemporary fantasy. I've also written a verse novel. Several of my stories have graphic novel elements. I'm represented by Jazmia Young at Curtis Brown, Ltd. 

As a kid, I inhaled books, even sneaking them under my covers to read when I was supposed to be sleeping! While I also enjoyed creative writing and often made up stories in my head, I didn't think of myself as a writer, so I didn't try to write seriously until I was an adult with children of my own. 

A writer never stops learning how to write better. I'm a member of SCBWI (The Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators), including the New England regional chapter. I also attend workshops at The Highlights Foundation to improve my craft. I'm part of a Crafting Kid Lit group for online support from other kid lit writers.  
​
​By day, I'm an academic support teacher. It's my goal to foster a confidence and love of reading and writing. 

I live in the Boston area. I like cooking (sometimes), spending time with friends and family, taking Milo for a walk (especially at the seashore), and snuggling with my cat, Clementine.
