Connecting Our Stories to God’s Story

I am a writer and speaker who loves helping women of faith connect our delightfully ordinary stories to God’s extraordinary love and faithfulness, so we can be encouraged and empowered knowing God’s been in the details–always has been, always will be. 

I am the author of three books: Fruit of My Spirit, Signs in Life, and Bouquet of Wisdom. I’ve also written for Christian online and print publications. 

In addition to writing, I love speaking to both smaller and larger groups. I share antics and vulnerabilities. We giggle and we groan. But it’s not all about me. We all have stories to tell. We all have stories that connect to bigger, more important lessons in life. 

I help women embrace their stories, make those connections, and find ways to get their stories down on paper. My goal is to have women say, “If she can do it, I can do it too.”

I never expected to be a writer.
I started with one story.
You can too.
