Hello and welcome! I am a young author, avid reader, and daughter of the King. My mission is to write gentle, hope-filled character-driven stories and heartfelt poetry that reach for your hand and touch your heart.
I was born in South Africa where I spent my early childhood. In my early tweens, my family and moved to Australia, but six months later, a new chapter opened up for us in New Zealand. That move set off a series of relocations, with my family moving towns three more times. These experiences gave me a unique perspective on cultures, new beginnings, and what it means to trust God with the future.
Home-schooling allowed me to devote time to many creative hobbies, none of which I thought I would ultimately pursue as a career. But binge reading during the COVID-19 lockdowns became a catalyst for deciding what I wanted to do with the rest of my life:
I joined The Young Writers Workshop in 2022, and the program gave me the encouragement and support I needed to pursue my dreams. Just over two years later, I graduated high-school, and, in early 2025, I went on to join The Author Conservatory, a college alternative program teaching business and writing. There, I'm receiving professional mentorship on the writing craft, learning to navigate the publishing industry, and becoming an entrepreneur. I'll be graduating in 2027!
Now, I live with my parents and two younger sisters in an adorable cottage on the outskirts of a small town with a rich history. When not writing or reorganizing my bookshelves, I'm trying out new gluten-free recipes, playing my favourite songs on my guitar, or starting a new cross stitch project.
On any given day, you can find me feverishly typing away at a new story idea, holed up in my room reading, or unsuccessfully evading my very loved but talkative sisters.
Some of my favorite authors include L. M. Montgomery, Lousia M. Alcott, Kellyn Roth, Joanne Bischof DeWitt, and Anna Rose Johnson. My washi tape collection is always growing, and I have more notebooks than I know what to do with, which is a very wonderful problem to have!
