I grew up in the Middle of North America and have lived in all four corners of the United States since. I hold a degree in English Literature and Writing from Bethel University in St. Paul, Minnesota. For now, I live in the Upper Left with my family.

When I’m not writing or spending time with family & friends, I love to read, engage in fiber arts of all kinds, write and play music, and spend as much time in the mountains as I can manage. I stay sane by lifting weights, running, and playing roller derby.
