A.L. Hatcher holds bachelor’s degrees in both forensic investigation and forensic pathology as well as an associate degree in veterinary technology.
Because of her love of animals, she’s been a registered veterinary technician for over 20 years. However, her passion for writing began in childhood when she would write her own short stories and picture books.
