Seeking a Home

I have several manuscripts that are waiting for the right publisher to provide them with a home on bookshelves across the country. Please reach out if you're interested in helping me make these a reality.

Meet Marnie

Marnie is brilliant, full of great ideas and eager to please. But she has a problem: Her ideas like to float away before she can carry them out. With support from loved ones, Marnie finds her own way to capture those thoughts so that she can bring all her creative ideas to life. Marnie and the Floating Thoughts is an entry point for young children and their caregivers to learn about executive dysfunction, a common symptom of ADHD, autism, and many other conditions.

Dealing with the tizzies

Tazzy is an energetic and friendly puppy who is challenged by anxiety when her family makes a big move. With the help of friends new and old, Tazzy learns techniques for managing her awful tizzies. Tazzy in a Tizzy is an accessible starting point for young children and their caregivers to talk about change, anxiety, and some of the ways we can ask for and provide support, alongside their curious, lovable new friend Tazzy.

Magic in the everyday

Our unnamed narrator gives the reader a tour of the seemingly innocuous items in their home that hold memories the eye could never see. Hidden Treasures is a story about discovery, creativity, and love. I envision this story as one teachers use in their classrooms to guide a one-of-a-kind show-and-tell for young students, and that families use to share memories across generations.

What's in a name?

How does a puppy learn its name? A recently adopted dog who calls himself RRRUFFFF tries to please his family by learning his new name as quickly as possible. The challenge turns out to be more difficult than he expects. Told from RRRUFFFF’s whimsical point of view, Heyzack! highlights the relationship between a kid and their pet. His playful, lyrical voice is one that both parents and kids will enjoy reading over and over.
