More About Me

To be a professional writer is my lifelong dream.

After losing my father unexpectedly in 2020 and then experiencing my own near-fatal accident three years later, I finally decided there was no more time to waste! Why do we wait for "the right moment" to chase our dreams? After all, we are on borrowed time. Thus, in late 2023, I made the decision to transition into writing full-time.

The untenable loss of my dad (due to alcohol abuse) had a profound impact on every aspect of my life. After seventeen years in the corporate administration arena, my desire as I move forward is to apply my creativity and skills to projects that make a positive impact in the world. 

My written work has lately been featured in Women Who Podcast magazine, and I am honored to be consistently invited to appear on platforms where I speak openly about being the child of a parent suffering with addiction. I am humbled to dedicate my time to freelance writing endeavors, as well as to addiction and recovery education, in an attempt to be a force for change.

Recent professional projects (as of March 2024) include proofreading work completed for Sandra Jonas Publishing, an interview with esteemed author Hannah Sward (STRIP: A Memoir) which is currently in review for publication, as well as essay submissions to literary journals (also in review).

I am passionate about the craft of storytelling, whether it’s a well-researched article or a creative work based on imagination. After all, the words we weave together to make our mark on the world will far outlast our physical presence. Why not make every assignment as impactful as possible?
