About
I write urban fantasy where the magic is as visceral as a clinical diagnosis.
As a medical professional, I've spent my career navigating the high stakes of human physiology. Now, I apply that same precision to my world-building, constructing magic systems governed by biological costs and grounded in medical realism.
My debut series, The Big Quiet Chronicles, is deeply rooted in my home state of Montana. From the shadowed history of Bozeman folklore to the rugged isolation of the high country, my settings are more than backdrops — they are characters shaped by the harsh, expansive beauty of the Treasure State.
When I'm not dissecting the mechanics of magic or analyzing an EKG, I'm usually at sea. I am currently sailing across the Atlantic, balancing the discipline of a watch schedule with the creative demands of a new manuscript. Whether I'm navigating the North Atlantic or the mountains of the American West, my work remains a testament to the resilient spirit found at the edges of the map.
