I’m an author and avid reader of fantasy and science fiction novels and wrote my first, somewhat questionable, short story when I was eight. Training in kenjustu tends to weave its way into my writing and many times battle scenes are played out with water noodles, instead of my training katanas, to protect the innocent from harm.
When I’m not geeking out at work as an Infrastructure Solutions Architect, I’m dreaming up new characters and adventures to share with my readers. My backup hobbies are cycling, reading and enjoying the outdoors. I currently live in Spring Texas with my husband Peter, my daughter Stephanie, and two mostly good, very sweet rescue dogs Tala and Taz.

Born into a winged warrior race, Lorelei struggles to hide that she’s been infected with a dangerous psychological disease, that if discovered by the elders , will lead to her execution. Rise of the Winged Assassin is the first book in the Winged Assassin series and is available for purchase from Amazon, Barns & Noble and other retail outlets.
When I create a character I can visualize what they look like in my mind and then I seek out a picture of someone who looks like them. If you would like to see my vision of what the character looks like in Rise of the Winged Assassin check out my Pinterest Page below. If you’ve read the book, can you pick out which picture belongs to what character?
