If you're considering a memoir, let's begin the conversation.

I’ve been a full-time professional writer since 2005. I cut my teeth in journalism, then broke away to write two memoirs about my travels. Now I’m dedicated to helping others realize book dreams of their own. I’m passionate about memoir because I believe that real history is not found in the official narrative—it’s in the first-hand accounts of people who actually lived it. 

When you choose to work with me, you put decades of creativity and field experience behind your project. I know how important your story is, and I will go in deep with you to make sure this gets done right. Your book will be authentic, powerful, and true to your own voice. There are so many people out there who need to hear what you have to say—don’t keep them waiting any longer.
