I write across genres, but all my stories start the same way: with a question, an image, or a character who won’t let go. Humor plays an important role because it’s how I make sense of the world. My work is rooted in empathy, imagination, and the belief that children’s stories should meet readers not only where they are, but where they’re capable of reaching.

I offer presentations and workshops for students K – 12, both in person and online. With more than two decades of experience, my sessions are structured, engaging and fun.
