Hello! Thank You for stopping by!

I am a contemporary writer and artist currently living in Avondale, a suburb of Jacksonville, Florida. I have enjoyed a love of creative writing and reading since childhood and have accepted many accolades for my work. In the past few years, I’ve work-shopped my first novel with Algonkian Writer’s Conference in St. Augustine, Florida and have received overwhelming positive feedback from significant writers who encouraged me to find an agent. I am currently in a writer’s program, Path to Publishing, and this years Algonkian Writers Conference polishing my Query Letter and actively looking for a Literary Agent and a Book Deal for my finished novel.

You can find teasers from my novel here and other musings.
