About

I grew up in the small mountain town of Monticello, Utah, where kids needed to be creative to find entertainment. Storytelling (inherited from my father) became one of my favorite pastimes. Later, I graduated from USU Eastern, and my first book was published in 2011. I eventually became an art teacher for grades K-6th; however, after a couple of years, I quit teaching and started my own business doing digital artwork. At the same time, I was still writing and publishing books. I am now a full-time author and artist, dabbling in everything from watercolor to life-size concrete sculptures and making up stories about various characters and their imaginary adventures.
I'm also an active member of my church and a Halloween enthusiast as a Rocky Mountain Haunter. Currently, I live on a small farm in central Utah with my husband where I like to spend time with my family, along with my bossy African Spurred Tortoise (named Thorny), and the giant concrete trolls in my garden.
Every day is an adventure.
