I graduated from Falmouth University in Cornwall, England, a setting which continually inspires my character-driven fantasy stories that twist folklore, forgotten places, ancient ruins, historical secrets, and future possibilities into our everyday lives. I also write contemporary romance, all or partially set in Cornwall. My essay, "Castles and Ruins," features in Dan Koboldt’s PUTTING THE FACT IN FANTASY from Penguin Random House.

I have a life-long fascination with abandoned mines, buried secrets, and anything in our world that just might be a portal to another, and I enjoy writing emotional journeys with themes such as self-doubt, missed chances, identity, and the stories we believe about others and ourselves.
 

I am currently seeking representation.
