The creative process gives me a lot of joy —the ideation, the research, the writing, the sharing and critiquing – it nudges me forward inch by inch. But my favorite part of the process is interacting with young readers - their curiosity, sense of adventure, and openness are so inspiring and healing!

I live in Atlanta with my husband Hamilton and a rambunctious Malinois named Archer. Outside of writing, I enjoy biking (especially on vacation), hiking, trying new recipes, and spending time with family and friends over lots of food.
