Welcome

I hold two degrees in Creative Writing: a BA from Pacific University and an MFA from American College Dublin. I won the Amy M. Young Award for best creative nonfiction in 2014 and was awarded Graduate Student of the Year in 2018. When I’m not writing, I enjoy hiking, kayaking, vegan baking, reading, and candle-making. I was born in Oklahoma, raised in Kansas, lucky enough to call Ireland home for a short while, and currently live half a mile away from the beach on the Oregon Coast.

My short fiction has appeared in various online journals. Links to discover more about my writing can be found below.
