“You write for all us grandmothers who came before.”

I am excited to share with you my gift of storytelling through in my debut novel, A Moon In All Things, and my children’s book, The Inside of Me.
Our oldest ancestors carved stories on cave walls and gestured or spoke a beginning, a middle, and an end. We tell stories to remember who we are and where we came from, to make sense of the world, and sometimes, to conjure whole new worlds.
I carry the Bardic storyteller in my cells, as had my mother, her father, and many of my wise and well ancestors. My storytelling provides a lantern light for those seeking to remember and rekindle their sacred connection with the natural world. In choosing words for a blank page, I hold an intention to unleash a heart-resonance that aligns with the creative life force in all its forms.
About
My stories, songs, speaking events, and nature-based walks and workshops all seek to help you remember and restore your sacred partnership with the rest of the natural world.
I grew up one of eight children in suburban Tonawanda, New York. Following the dictates of family and societal programming, I jumped into the world of engineering, earning a Masters of Engineering from University at Buffalo, and a Bachelors of Industrial Engineering at General Motors Institute, now Kettering University.
After decades working as an executive for manufacturers in the auto industry and then in information systems, I returned to my early love for how words, music, nature, and beautiful places can enliven the whole landscape of a life. I began to write songs, and stories — speaking and performing them throughout the country, and soon, narrowed my focus to align with my reverence for Earth.
