The written word is a longtime companion of mine. Whether it’s through personal journaling, mom blogging, relaxed reading, or story reviewing, I’ve found a way to connect with words. I often appreciate art, music, and photography; however, words best help me process troubled emotions, share my experiences, learn transformative ideas, and help others clarify intended meaning.
I'm a California native who left the West Coast to pursue a college degree. After graduating with a BA, I married a Cajun man and moved to the Deep South, where I’ve raised my ever-growing family (7 kids!) for over two decades. I'm proficient in cooking arroz y frijoles as well as red beans & rice!
I've been a homeschool mom since 2003, when my oldest began Kindergarten; I'm now teaching my youngest how to sign her name!
I consider myself a John Paul II generation Catholic who respects the beauty and potency of the Traditional Mass. I completed a bachelor’s degree from Franciscan University of Steubenville, OH. My creative writing endeavors include parenting articles, blog posts, saint stories, and other works centered on Catholic theology and Christian living.
