I am currently working as a freelance writer for regional and national magazines and news publications. I have written for Reno Magazine, The Polishing Stone, Unsigned, The Magazine, Tahoe Quarterly Magazine, Nevada Home Magazine, Carson Magazine, RLife Magazine, Nevada Business Journal, The Business Report of Northern Nevada, the Reno Gazette-Journal, a Reno-based news publication, as well as other publications.

I truly enjoy all aspects of writing, whether freelance writing-for-hire work or work which lies within the creative literary arts such as fiction and poetry. I am, also, a songwriter and musician and enjoy performing my own original songs.

I am a member of Ash Canyon Poets located in Carson City, Nevada. I have published poetry in Margie Review, Rattlesnake Review, The MeadoW, The Danse Macabre, Illya’s Honey, and The Tonopah Review.  For samples of my poems, please click here.

I originally began my writing career as a songwriter in 1974 while working as a professional musician based out of Nevada County, California. I always felt drawn to story telling and much of my songwriting reflected this by taking form as "story-songs," predominantly focused on lyric and melody. I worked as a professional musician for 15 years, going through many genres and styles, from folk to jazz to rock 'n' roll. I, now, perform my own original music in Northern Nevada and California communities, upon request. For samples of my songs, please click here.  

I am also a member of the national writers organization, Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). For a sample of my verse-novel in progress, please click here.  

I currently reside in Minden, Nevada, with my husband, David, and our son, Daniel.
