Biography

I have loved the artistic forms of writing and painting since childhood, and even then I knew there were a few specific goals I wanted to accomplish in life. Chief among them was owning a home that I could design exactly the way I envisioned. Beyond that, I dreamed of devoting time to writing and publishing stories in the genres I cherished growing up.

Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, I attended Ohio State University, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and pursued, though never completed, a minor in Classics. After graduation, I entered the corporate world of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), drawn by the promise of steady hours and reliable income.

It wasn’t until 2007 that I realized the importance of immersing myself in the writing community. I began joining writing groups, studying craft books, and networking with fellow writers. At one point, I served as both a member and president of the Central Ohio Fiction Writers (COFW). Later, I co-founded a smaller group—Craft, Critique & Create (CCC)—with two others, and it was there that I truly began setting goals and finishing my projects.

After spending more than a decade working on my first book, I finally committed to making my publishing dreams a reality. As of 2025, I have completed five full-length novels, two novellas, and am currently working on the third installment of a Christmas anthology—all set within the same paranormal world. 

 I am now moving toward self-publishing, hopeful for a successful future.
