I believe all the wonders of nature are designed with messages to draw us back to God, the Creator. Through my writing I hope to help others learn to view the natural word as a place rich with meaning, and I wish to take you along on my many adventures! I have a goal of visiting every US National Park and writing about the journey in a series of books. My first three volumes are complete!

While exploring the National Parks,, I have been deeply inspired by Theodore Roosevelt and have become a self-made Roosevelt scholar. At the same time, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to write for Dolly Parton's Dollywood Theme Park in East Tennessee as a Dollywood Insider.

One of my earliest and personally impactful writing accomplishments was in the second grade, when I wrote a short story which won a contest with PBS, resulting in recording and airing a segment for LeVar Burton's Reading Rainbow. In high school I went on to publish my first novel.

For a long time, fiction was my passion. and in 2015, after many years of careful contemplation and writing, I published my fiction masterpiece, the suspense mystery novel, Dakota Broken. Since then, I've been not only writing but publishing my own work, designing every fine detail of my books. I have had some other writing endeavors, but these are just some of the highlights.

Currently I live in central Kentucky where I have been an elementary Spanish teacher for twelve years. I spend my summers adventuring and working at Glacier National Park in Montana

I hope you take time to enjoy one of my many books! Come along on the adventures!
