ABOUT THE ARTIST/AUTHOR

Originally from Texas, I was drawn to the beauty of the Pacific Northwest and have made the Puget Sound area my home since 1996. Through a great respect for nature and believing that everything is sacred, I am profoundly concerned about the conservation of our planet, specifically the depletion of forested land and global warming, and I'm working toward living a completely sustainable life one day soon. 

"Traveler" would be my occupation of choice if it were possible. I love to travel and I embrace the many gifts offered through cultural diversity. It is my dream to one day visit some of the countries that have helped to inspire the settings for The Traveler’s Saga, a series of sci-fi fantasy novels that I began writing in 2005. Some of my own meditation/prayer bead designs have been influenced by the intricate knotwork designs of the ancient Celts, whose rich history and mythology is also a source of fascination and inspiration for my written work. Although The Traveler’s Saga marks my professional authoring debut, I have been writing short stories and poetry for many years. I have been handcrafting jewelry using semi-precious gemstones for nearly a decade, but I shifted my focus from making jewelry to creating meditation and prayer beads after being inspired by the fact that some of the characters in The Traveler's Saga use prayer beads.

My mission is to inspire people, specifically women, to believe in themselves, and to believe that everyone is empowered to live a fulfilling life. I hope to inspire others to improve a small piece of this big world for themselves, as well as for others and for future generations. As a result, I strive to create strong female characters in my stories, characters who young women can respect and emulate as positive role models

Celebrate nature and all that is sacred!

Blessings!
