The wild Alaskan life called upon me 12 years ago, drawing me forth from the womb of the sun-burnt smoggy city known as Las Vegas. Within three years, from 1994 to 1997, I went from highschool graduate, to a featured artist with the Las Vegas Nevada Opera Theater, to a married mother of my first child. All ideas of music performance diminished within the wake of a new family, and a new life.

As time went by I pursued other interests, usually within the home... artwork, homeschooling all four of my kids, and taking care of my live-in elderly Mother-in-law. Beauty was found in everyday things but more so in artwork and prose.

Now that my children are older, and I'm no longer tied down with diaper duty, sleepless nights, and the overall insanity of bringing up four very young kids, I've reawakened my ability to write. The horror genre has become my new forte, with a rhythm in poetry as well.

My goals are to self-publish my first short story, on my own website, during the next 8 weeks. (Soon to be up and running as soon as , my husband and partner in literary bliss, gets it presentable.) Further down the road, I'll be pursuing self-publishing, possibly submitting my works to publishers until .. well.. until I'm published.
