Like a lot of starry-eyed flyover-state girls, I was hell-bent on heading west to be in showbiz. I've always wanted to tell stories, and after a few years of auditioning for tv and film roles (proud SAG member here!), I worked behind the scenes as a TV producer; and then, in event production, starting my own wedding and event planning company. There's no greater creative satisfaction than crafting a story, whether it's delivering gorgeous before-and-afters for an HGTV renovation show or helping a couple tell the tale of their romance in front of beloved wedding guests.
My storytelling turned to the page after a trying time: from 2017 to 2019, my husband and I each lost our mothers, and all three of our pets, too. Eager for an escape, I picked up a romance novel for the first time in over a decade, and realized I had a few ideas of my own. I started typing in March 2019 and haven't looked back - and I HAD to write every day, or my anxiety took off. It took a few months to realize writing rom-coms was my version of therapy! Before long, I honed my craft and gathered enough advice for querying that I began my own querying journey in August 2023.
