I'm a self-published writer who loves Christian romance stories. I was raised just outside Pittsburgh and spent several years traveling the world with my husband while teaching English in Jakarta and Seoul. These days, we're back in the United States, raising our daughter and exploring all the wonderful places our local area has to offer. My first novel, When We Were Kids, was published in 2025, and I'm thrilled that the next installment in the series is coming soon!
