JE is a fan of science fiction and science mysteries. She wrote stories when she was in high school but set aside her hobby for college and career, until she attended a writer's conference in San Francisco in 2010. The experience unsealed a door in her mind that she thought had long closed.

JE cherishes the folklore, tales and stories learned while growing up in the Pacific islands, and has taken to writing about fictional characters with extraordinary gifts that supersize their human abilities. She lives and works in California.

A young engineer, a ghost, and mystery at the morgue was inspired by the first hardcover book I received as a tween--Nancy Drew's Mystery of the 99 Steps, and stories of my best friend's teenager's antics navigating adult life.
