I’ve written and published six books.
In the young adult space, The Only Way Out is a novel and Many Ways Up is a workbook about bullying and mental health. I have three children’s books – Muddy Spokes, Speedy Spokes and Spokes Blows a Tire – each using humor and a cute bicycle wheel character to tell fun stories that teach kids how to be resilient and manage their big emotions. And for adult readers, I created The Pet Loss Grief Journal, a short book and journal with daily insights and prompts inspired by my deep, personal life experience.
All of my books donate part of their proceeds, and are rooted in messaging that makes my readers FEEL, LEARN and DO in their daily lives.
In the media
I have had the privilege of appearing in various media outlets to speak about my books, why I wrote them and the purpose behind my writing.
The “WHY” behind what I do
I am forever inspired by my never-ending dream of writing words that move people to take meaningful action in their lives.
The core messages in my books are rooted in open communication, speaking up, managing our emotions, acknowledging our feelings, rising to the occasion in the face of adversity, and living our best possible lives with what we’ve got.
I write books to…
Share my creativity with others.
Move people.
Inspire open and honest conversation.
Help readers FEEL, LEARN and DO.
By taking people through unique stories, it is my hope and vision that I can have a positive impact on the understandings, perceptions and actions of those who read my work.”
