I've loved to write since I first penciled words on green-lined penmanship paper in second grade. My talent for it has driven my career in corporate communications and earned me several accolades for fiction over the years, most recently second place in the Elizabeth Simpson Smith Short Story Contest. My work has appeared in the Scarlet Leaf Review, On the Premises, and Currents. I have published a novel and short story anthology (see My Books for details), and I'm at work on a second novel.

I write because I can't help it.
