Overview
I like to work on projects with the potential to improve people's lives. I think good books can make the world a better place.
When I'm not writing books for other people, I'm working on my own blog and the podcast I host for parents of teenagers, called Talking to Teens. That's where I share tips for discussing tough issues with teenagers and I interview leading authors from all over the world.
I love helping people put their stories and ideas into writing in a way that gets attention and causes readers to take action or rethink something they used to take for granted.
With degrees in psychology and screenwriting, I excel at using well-structured stories to demonstrate complex ideas in a simple, emotional, engaging, and scientifically-accurate way.
