About me
I’m an author, artist, and trauma-informed coach drawn to the quiet emotional landscapes we all carry—the memories that surface like tides, the intuition we follow or avoid, the moments that break us open and ask us to grow. My work explores vulnerability, resilience, and the unseen currents that shape our lives.
For readers…
Writing often happens with these two curled beside me.
Whether I’m writing a coastal mystery or crafting stories for children, I’m always searching for emotional truth.
I’m interested in the way people heal, how trauma echoes through generations, and how connection—human, intuitive, or spiritual—restores us.
I hold an MFA in Creative Writing and an MA in Communication, grounding my work in craft, story, and the psychology of connection.
For art lovers…
I’m drawn to the quiet moments before art begins—the liminal space where inspiration, intuition, memory, and atmosphere converge.
Living near the New Jersey coastline, I’m lucky to be close to its emotional landscapes—white light on sand, the pulse of tide and wind, birds in flight.
Art, for me, is a process of inspiration, experimentation, and discovery—following instinct until something honest surfaces.
I enjoy creating mixed-media work rooted in photography, sketching, digital layering and hand-finished texture.
Discovering waves with acrylic paint.

Alongside my creative work, I’m a certified Health & Wellness Coach with additional trauma-informed and mental-health–informed training.
While I’m not currently accepting new clients, this background informs how I think, how I listen, and how I approach both storytelling and human experience.
My coaching approach is grounded in:
nervous system awareness
emotional safety
self-compassion
the slow, steady process of rebuilding inner trust
These themes also help shape the stories I write and the characters I create.
