I grew up in Raleigh, North Carolina, the daughter of a journalist and a teacher. I have been an advertising copywriter, newspaper columnist, staff writer for an international relief agency, travel writer, blogger, teacher, communications director for several nonprofits, and personal assistant to a New York Times bestselling author.
My coming-of-age memoir, Untethered: Faith, Failure, and Finding Solid Ground (She Writes Press) is being released April 5, 2022.
I'm passionate about my faith, books, travel, nature (especially the beach), social justice, and my family. I live in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, with my husband, Stephen.
