Interested in having a real-life author come to your classroom to teach kids about writing? I offer 45-minute sessions with students in 1st-6th Grade. I am now booking for Spring and Fall, 2026!

About me: I’m a middle-grade author based in Sonoma County. I’ve written more than 25 novels across genres and 14 of those for young readers. I’m especially drawn to stories about courage, loyalty, and the moment when an ordinary kid realizes they’re capable of more than they thought.

My school visits are practical, interactive, and age-appropriate. I don’t just talk about writing; I show students how stories are built and how they can build their own.
