Turn bedtime fears into monster-sized courage!

Inspired by the campy fun of B sci-fi movies, the award-winning picture book, Attack of the Monster Pickles!, is a humorous and heartfelt story that empowers kids ages 4-8 to use their imaginations to overcome their nighttime fears.

Author Visits

Spark creativity and inspire a love for reading with a custom author visit to your school!

Connecting with readers is my favorite part of being an author! One way I do that is by visiting schools and talking about my favorite subjects: reading & writing. Author visits can be tailored for kids (and adults!) of varying ages — from read-alouds and Q&As for younger elementary students to writing, publishing, and career day activities for older elementary through high school and college students.

Author Talk

Need an experienced, credentialed speaker for your next event?

I’m passionate about helping other writers and would love to speak at your next event! I’m a career educator with over 30 years of experience teaching all grade levels, from kindergarten through college. I’m also a professional writer who has authored an award-winning children’s picture book (with more on the way!), and I’m currently at work on a cozy mystery series for adults. Additionally, I’ve written about education and parenting for major media outlets such as USA Today, Healthline, and Business Insider. I’m happy to share my experiences and insights on writing, marketing, and teaching. Let’s chat about your speaking needs and how I can contribute to your next event!
