I’ve always wanted to create worlds and adventures that could possibly stick with someone for their entire life. And it would be an amazing feeling to create that inspirational story that opened up a new perspective for a child due to a character or a plot. There is just something so heartwarming to see that you brought happiness and inspiration to a little one or even maybe created a story that they needed to hear to grow and accept who they truly are. So, for me, being able to write and illustrate stories for children is nothing short of a gift. And that is why I love to create stories for children.

My hope then, is to show that every child can have a chance to do anything they want and to bring out the courage in themselves to continue being themselves- with adventures that show flawed characters, growth and female characters that are their own heroes.

It’s a big feat, but that is what inspired me when I was little and that is what I wish to continue to create for children to come.
