I began my career writing articles for several regional and national magazines and won the Los Angeles Pierce College 5th Annual Writers’ Conference Award for outstanding magazine article.

I’m a member of Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) and Women Writing the West (WWW).

I work part-time as a Library Media Specialist for a local school district and coordinate a yearly book
drive to put books into the hands of needy children.

When I’m not putting pen to paper in search of my next story, I’m on horseback exploring the hills or working with cattle – a natural enough pursuit for a
gal whose family pioneered their way West from
Texas to New Mexico and Arizona as ranchers.

My husband, two daughters, and I share our house with our two dogs and count ourselves lucky to live where hawks still sail overhead by day and coyotes serenade at night.
