Welcome!
I’m a new self-published author inspired by the extraordinary lives and stories shared by my family and friends. My debut novel, The Strongest Thread: Stories That Stitched Us Together, follows my grandmother’s journey through love, motherhood, loss, and resilience, including her decades-long search for the father of her daughter after they lost contact when he left for Vietnam. The book will be released in January 2027!
Future books that I hope to publish will explore other remarkable lives, including my husband’s journey from a child left to fend for himself without food or housing in Phoenix, Arizona, to becoming the successful man he is today. I also hope to share my own story and many others in the years ahead.
Although inspired by real people and experiences, my books are not traditional memoirs. I shape true stories and treasured memories into engaging novels that allow readers to step into these lives and easily follow their journey while sharing laughter along the way.
