Member Since
July 2010


I was part of the first computers revolution. In elementary school I played with punch reels for curls with my younger sisters. I grew up with the large floppy discs. My father introduced me to Asimov, Heinlein, and McCaffery at a young age.

In college I studied psychology, history and flute. I teach and perform on multiple instruments.

When my father was diagnosed with a terminal cancer I began writing. I am currently working on a series of books about elemental teenagers who transform into mythical creatures.

Editing, Second Book

I’ve finally released the sequel to Ocean Lost, Caverns Found.

On Feb 24, 2011 I started this book, I finished it four years later. I spent the last six months moving to Texas, unpacking and procrastinating editing.
