Stories with Heart, Humor, and a Hint of Spice

Before I was a school leader, I was a kid who believed stories could change the world. Now, as an author-in-progress, I’m writing books that mix laugh-out-loud humor with big-hearted lessons for young readers.

I write for children who need to see themselves in books—and for grownups who love reading those books out loud on repeat. My stories often center food (because food is love!), leadership, magic, mischief, and empathy. I believe books can help us change ourselves and make the world a better place.

Current Projects

The Taco Rebellion (Working Title)
What happens when tacos are tired of being eaten every Tuesday? They fight back—with salsa bombs, guacamole demands, and a message: tacos have feelings too! A hilarious, read-aloud-ready picture book full of food, fun, and a little heart.

Leaders, Leaders Everywhere 
 

Leaders, Leaders Everywhere is a dual-format children’s book series that celebrates the quiet power and everyday brilliance of young girls as leaders. Set in diverse cities where spoken languages and cultures converge, each story centers a different girl navigating leadership in her own way—through empathy, advocacy, creativity, and problem-solving.

This series redefines leadership beyond titles and loud voices, showcasing girls who lead in multilingual, multicultural, and multigenerational communities.

Let’s Work Together

I'm currently seeking literary representation and working toward publishing my first children’s book.
