I live on the East Coast in Maryland, where I firmly believe winter is the superior season—as long as the wind doesn’t get ideas. I’ve been writing since I was seventeen, though I took a long detour thanks to imposter syndrome before finding my way back. I love high fantasy with my whole heart—The Sword of Kaigen being a recent favorite—and will devour a book in a night or two depending on my mental state and available snacks. I have a deep affection for stop-motion films and the care, patience, and love poured into every frame, sound, and voice. I try to bring that same attention into my writing, and mostly I just hope people enjoy reading my stories as much as I enjoy making them. Also, forever a Percy Jackson fan.
