I am a professional audiobook narrator, and fantasy author who loves bringing stories to life. I just graduated from Sean Pratt's coaching curriculum, and have completed 8 audiobooks... and counting. I wrote Crimson, the first novel of The Dragon Keeper Chronicles, during my time as an elementary teacher. I shared my progress with my 3rd grade students to keep them motivated in writing. I aspire to write a timeless literary masterpiece. Before becoming a writer, I graduated with a master’s degree in developmental psychology, and taught elementary education for 8 years. Now, I am focused on growing as an author and voice actor. When I'm not working on novels or audiobooks, you can find me spending time with my daughters.
