I am a writer, researcher, and college instructor.  I have authored eight novels and several other books. Two of my novels were on Wattpad's featured list  (2016, 2017) where Wattpad "spotlights  cream-of-the-crop stories, hand-curated by Wattpad staff." My stories have over 100,000 reads on Wattpad. My 2013 full-length play If There Are Any Heavens won the Hillsboro Artists Repertory Theater's Promising Playwrights Competition. My full-length play Love Is Enough won The Portland Civic Theater Guild’s 2014 Fertile Ground Festival competition. I recently completed a nonfiction work about parents of young children with autism. I am currently collaborating with red couch / black dog productions on a podcast based on my neo-noir novel The Diarist. I also write under the pen name Rose Gluck. I hold a doctorate in education and teach college courses in psychology, special education, and infant mental health.

I live in the Pacific Northwest with my husband, daughter, and two sweet doggies!!
