Since signing my first publishing contract at age 13, I've written five young adult action/adventure novels and contributed to the Into the Unknown and Christmas Miracles anthologies. I'm also an economics journalist at WORLD News Group. When I'm not writing, you'll find me flying right seat in a Piper PA-30 aircraft, running endurance races, or heading upriver on my paddleboard.
