I am a picture book writer, animal lover, and believe that life is better with a bit of laughter. 

I’ve always gravitated towards a creative environment. After graduating from Syracuse University’s School of Communications, I spent almost a decade at a Boston advertising agency. Eventually, I left to spend more time with my family and it’s then I decided to pursue something very close to my heart – my own individual stories.

I currently live in Massachusetts with my husband, son, daughter, and eight fur-family members. My passion is writing picture books that mix animal facts with fun. I also cannot pass up a beautiful sunset, am never without a book, and have been known to rescue every bug that wanders into my house. My debut picture book, ALPACAS MAKE TERRIBLE LIBRARIANS (2024, Gnome Road Publishing) won a Children's Book Council (CBC) 2025 Children's Favorite Award. A sequel, OWLS MAKE TERRIBLE TEACHERS,  will follow in Spring 2026 (Gnome Road). I am represented by Elisa Houot at The Seymour Agency.
