About

Born in a small rural Texas town to a construction worker father and a homemaker mother, I held the belief I had the best life. Amidst a backdrop of farm animals and endless acres of the finest corn fields in the area, my brother and I would immerse ourselves in hours of playful outdoor activities, chasing after our beloved dog, while sharing moments of pure joy. At the young age of eleven, my parents’ divorce brought an end to everything. Luckily, I was fortunate enough to have a grandmother in the city who graciously took me in and provided me with support until I reached the age of eighteen. Looking back, I am deeply thankful for her presence in my life. She was instrumental in shaping the foundation for my tomorrow.

My journey as a writer began to unfold during my college years when I participated in local community theatre productions. It was only recently, a few years ago, that I made the decision to finally publish my writing.

Throughout the course of 2023, my book When Tender is the Heart reached the remarkable feat of appearing on the Amazon best selling list on four separate occasions.

When I am not writing, I like to experience the beauty of nature. I am also deeply passionate about a variety of sport activities, including hiking, tennis, running and cycling.

Periodically throughout the week, I can also be found in classroom settings, assisting children who have disabilities.

Occasionally, I do voluntary work for the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department in my area. Among some of my other preferred places to spend time – bookshops, museums, and the theatre.

Ultimately, I am of the opinion that it is imperative to express oneself with kindness, embodying the virtues of humility, gentleness, and patience. The influence of those words has the potential to drastically alter someone’s life. 

Thank you for stopping by.
