About

I am an artist, and words are my muse. 

I live in Philomath, Ore., a small logging town of 4,500 people, in which I was born and raised. Although my day-to-day is in a tiny town, I''ve had big experinces that have expanded my horizons. Taking a 14-year hiatus from my home state, living mostly in California with stints in Nevada, Maryland and Tennessee, I have seen the sites and met the people of many places. I've had a lifelong love for travel, and seek adventure whenever possible. I've been on an African safari, explored the jungles of Costa Rica, zip-lined a canyon in Mexico, and laid on the white sand beaches of Turks and Caicos - to name a few of my adventures. I believe that we are all stories waiting to be told. I am an eternal optimist. I strive to live, love and laugh each day. Life is too short to not be laughing, or writing.

I'm fortunate to be a freelancer. I love my job.
