Born and raised in a tiny fishing village along the seacoast of Washington state, I was brought up with tales galore, filled with myths, superstitions, and legends of Native Americans living on reservations. I filed all the stories away, always knowing from a young age that someday I would write about them. The time has arrived and I have written three fiction books so far, all taking place in and around my birthplace.      

I graduated from Quinault High School as Valedictorian, with a scholarship to Grays harbor College. Later on, I continued my education at Peninsula college where I made the President's List with straight A's one quarter. Received a degree in accounting from Western State University. My first book Skye Dancer was chosen to be featured on the Washington State's Library website. Also named best mystery of the year by the Reviewer at Rebecca Reads.
